Daniil Medvedev defeated Sebastian Baez 6-2, 6-2, 7-6(6) on Saturday (September 2) to advance to the fourth round of the US Open 2023. On his journey to the second week of the New York Major, the Russian previously defeated Attila Balazs 6-1, 6-1, 6-0 and Christopher O'Connell 6-2, 6-2, 6-7(6), 6-2. However, Medvedev seemed to be a lot more worried about whether a fan's girlfriend would be able to sleep properly.
Following the match, the 27-year-old spoke to former World No. 1 Pam Shriver and joked about a loud fan from the crowd and claimed how concerned he was whether his wife or girlfriend would be able to properly sleep at night.
"There is one guy, I don't know if he has a girlfriend or wife, but I don't know how his girlfriend or wife is going to sleep because he is so pumped up that he's going to, at the night, say, 'Vamos, vamos, vamos, vamos, vamos', just nonstop. So, I feel sorry for him."
