French Open: Australian Wildcard Walton Upsets Medvedev In Five-setter
Stade Roland Garros: Daniil Medvedev’s wretched run at Roland Garros continued on Tuesday as the world No 5 bowed out in the first round once again in stunning fashion, losing to Australian wildcard Adam Walton in five sets in an astonishing contest on the Suzanne-Lenglen Court.
The former US Open champion was outplayed by Walton 6-2, 1-6, 6-1, 1-6, 6-4 in three hours and 22 minutes on the clay and claimed the biggest win of his career, as well as his first over a top-10 player.
It was Medvedev’s seventh first-round exit at the French Open in 10 visits and leaves him with a dismal 0-4 record in five-set encounters at Roland Garros.
