US Open 2021: Daniil Medvedev enters his 2nd Finals, defeats Canadian Felix Auger in straight sets 6-4, 7-5, 6-2: The world number two Daniil Medvedev has moved to his 2nd US Open finals after defeating world number 15 Felix Auger-Aliassime. 21-years-old Canadian Felix won the 1st game in every set but Medvedev showed his experience and reached the finish line. It got quite tense for the duo in the 2nd set as Medvedev won it 7-5, but all-in-all, it was a dominant performance by the Russian.

Daniil Medvedev dominated Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime 6-4 7-5 6-2 on Friday, reaching the U.S. Open final courtesy of a dozen aces in just a little over two hours.

The 2019 runner-up looked rock-solid at the start, firing off seven aces and never facing a breakpoint in the first set, where he had just five unforced errors and broke Auger-Aliassime’s serve in straight points in the seventh game.

Down a break in the next set, Medvedev looked like he might be in trouble but refused to give up as Auger-Aliassime twice failed to clinch on set point in the ninth game and Medvedev broke his serve.

A double fault from Auger-Aliassime in the 11th game – one of 10 across the entire match – helped Medvedev to another break before the Russian ran away with the momentum into the third set, where he dropped just one first-serve point.
