Six of the eight seeds survived to the final eight in Beijing, including the top four.
And that set up some good ones – including one that’s almost a throwback in Zverev v Medvedev.
Medvedev has had a harrowing year by his standards, and his longtime coach Gilles Cervara is gone. But perhaps he’s finding a few last gasps before wrapping up the season.
In Tokyo, they’re a round ahead. And the four singles semifinals were all at the Laver Cup a week ago – although one, surprise Jenson Brooksby (who took out Rune) was the sub for Team World.
