Since then he has made short, three-set work of China\u2019s Wu Yibing and Nicol\u00e1s Jarry, and it was the manner with which he destroyed the fancied Chilean that signalled his intent.<\/p>\n<p>The fourth round of grand slams has been a cursed stage for de Minaur in his career to date, having exited four of five times in the round of 16. The fifth &#8211; his only quarter-final appearance &#8211; was at the US Open in 2020 but, at the height of Covid, the competition was not at its stiffest.<\/p>\n<p>But the quietly spoken baseliner has previously said he wants to be a top-10 player, and is finally on the verge of becoming one, currently ranked 13 (equal to Nick Kyrgios\u2019s career-high ranking) and appearing set to rise further.<\/p>\n<p>Medvedev, meanwhile, is still ranked third behind only Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz and leads the head to head 4-2. De Minaur has, however, won the two most recent meetings.<\/p>\n<h2>Good morning!<\/h2>\n<p>Welcome to our live coverage of the US Open.
