Okay, so I was trying to find out the score between Medvedev and Hurkacz, and let me tell you, it wasn’t as straightforward as I thought it would be!
First, I just did a simple search. You know, typed in “Medvedev vs Hurkacz score” and hoped for the best. I saw some snippets of information, some mentioned the Australian Open, which I knew was a big deal.
I dug a little deeper. I found this one blurb that said Medvedev “edged past” Hurkacz. Okay, “edged past” makes it sound close! It also said this was Medvedev’s 75th Grand Slam match win. 75th! That’s a lot of matches.
Then I got the full breakdown: 7-6 (4), 2-6, 6-3, 5-7, 6-4.
Man what a rollercoster!
Let’s see what we’ve got:
- First set: 7-6 (4). Sounds like a tiebreaker! Must have been tense.
- Second set: 2-6. Whoa, what happened there? Looks like Hurkacz dominated that one.
- Third set: 6-3. Okay, Medvedev bounced back.
- Fourth set: 5-7. Another close one, going the other way! Hurkacz pulled it out.
- Fifth set: 6-4. Finally, Medvedev takes it. What a game.
So, in the end, Medvedev won, but it was clearly a tough, back-and-forth match. Five sets! I can only imagine how those guys felt after playing that long. I feel tired just reading the scores!
