Everyone thought it was maybe going to be Elkress versus Djokovic which wouldn't have been bad but it's Sinner versus Medvedev 3 versus 4. I've got to go with Sinner in this one. I just think his legs are going to outlast Medvedev. I'm going to say Sinner in 5. I think it's going to be the hardest match for Sinner so far and that includes Djokovic, the nerves of his first final but I think we'll outlast Medvedev in the end in 5. I'm going to go down the corner to Lowe who's winning this round open.
