NEW YORK : Second seed Daniil Medvedev resumes his bid for his first Grand Slam title against Britain's Dan Evans at the U.S. Open on Sunday, while Aryna Sabalenka faces her good friend and doubles partner Elise Mertens in the fourth round.

"I think it's tough to describe with one word, but definitely very tricky," Medvedev said."I would think very smart because he doesn't have one shot that's a weapon and yet he's been a top player for many years already." "I think my game is in a good place," Evans said, adding that he was trying to keep a positive mindset.

The Belarusian won the 2019 doubles title at Flushing Meadows with Mertens and the pair also won the doubles crown at this year's Australian Open before Sabalenka decided to focus more on her singles career.
