So many people thought Sinner would tank against Rune to knock Djokovic out. Medvedev is guaranteed to face Djokovic in the semis if he wins today and guaranteed not to if he loses in straights.

No, I don’t think he will tank the match.

Daniil will be motivated to beat Novak after the USO. They take turns defeating each other on court. And he defeated Novak in Dubai this year. He’s a fierce competitor, why would he want to tank it?

These guys should just take a page out of Tsitsipas’ play book and withdraw from the tournament. That’s the surest way to avoid playing Djokovic.

HAHAHAHAHA OP THIS AGED BEAUTIFULLY!
