Wimbledon's runner-up reached his first quarter-final at the US Open. In the next match, he will face another Russian player, Karen Khachanov.

"It's been an incredible game, Daniil explained as the defending champion has a lot of pressure on his shoulders, but I've played amazingly in recent months," Kyrgios said, as reported by Antara from AFP.

"The defeat in the Wimbledon final was a bitter pill, but now I want to go far. I'm happy to be showing my talent," he continued.

As for Medvedev, this defeat will make him lose his top rank. Even in this match, he was angry.

The Russian even threatened to refuse to continue the game if the disturbance continued. However, the complaint did not help him win the game.
