Hamad Medjedovic pulled off one of the most improbable victories of the season, defeating Stefanos Tsitsipas in Doha (7-6, 5-7, 7-6) despite a muscle injury that prevented him from playing well in the final games of the match.

The match was hotly contested on the Qatari centre court, with Medjedovic taking the first set in a tie-break, before Tsitsipas woke up at the end of the second set to stay alive in the match.

But just as he was leading 5-4 in the third set, the Serb injured himself with a big break (see video below).

Despite the pain, Medjedovic hung in there and pulled off the feat of winning the tiebreak, despite limping off on every point.

Tsitsipas's handshake was frosty, as the Greek confirmed that he is struggling to get back to his best, even against a vastly diminished opponent.

Medjedovic is due to face Felix Auger-Aliassime in the next round, but his withdrawal is expected in the next few hours.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.

What a finish this is.. I believe King has used his boost for today. Skelp is closing strong. Two wins and he claims 1st if I lose my last prediction.
