Tommy Paul will play Hubert Hurkacz after the seventh seed — who eliminated Nadal in the second round — beat Sebastian Baez 5-7, 7-6 (4), 6-4.

Rome Masters: Reigning champion Daniil Medvedev ousted by American Tommy Paul

Tommy Paul will play Hubert Hurkacz after the seventh seed &mdash; who eliminated Nadal in the second round &mdash; beat Sebastian Baez 5-7, 7-6 (4), 6-4.

The curse of the defending champion struck again for Daniil Medvedev.
The second-seeded Medvedev has never successfully defended a title and he failed again on Tuesday as he lost 6-1, 6-4 to American Tommy Paul to become the latest top player to crash out of the Italian Open.
&ldquo;It's disappointing, to be honest,&rdquo; said Medvedev, who has won 20 tour-level titles. "I wanted to do better here. I was not even close. What can I say? The more titles I win, the more chances I have to defend.
&ldquo;So the more tournaments in a year I'm going to play where I already won, maybe not defend, but at least win twice the same tournament, that's what I'm going to try to do.&rdquo; The opener lasted just 28 minutes as the 14th-seeded Paul broke Medvedev on all three of his service games and then served out the set to love.
&ldquo;Was a tough one. Mentally I had to be much better,&rdquo; Medvedev said. &ldquo;I started to calm myself down and focus on the match only at the end of the match, and it was too late. I had to do better. I was expecting myself to play better.&rdquo; Medvedev improved slightly in the second set when he broke immediately but Paul broke straight back and never looked back, securing his spot in the quarterfinals when Medvedev sent a backhand long.
The second-seeded Medvedev followed 10-time champion Rafael Nadal and top-ranked Novak Djokovic with early exits in Rome.
The only other players to have won the men's tournament at the Foro Italico in the past 19 years are Andy Murray and Alexander Zverev.
The third-seeded Zverev, who won in 2017, eased past Nuno Borges 6-2, 7-5 and will face Taylor Fritz.
Fritz reached the men's quarterfinals for the first time after recovering from losing a lengthy second-set tiebreaker &mdash; during which he let slip match point &mdash; to see off Grigor Dimitrov 6-2, 6-7 (11), 6-1.
Alejandro Tabilo backed up his stunning third-round win against Djokovic by edging Karen Khachanov 7-6 (5), 7-6 (10) to reach a Masters quarterfinal for the first time. He will face Zhang Zhizhen, who ousted Thiago Monteiro 7-6 (4), 6-3.
Paul will play Hubert Hurkacz after the seventh seed &mdash; who eliminated Nadal in the second round &mdash; beat Sebastian Baez 5-7, 7-6 (4), 6-4. The other quarterfinal pits Stefanos Tsitsipas against Nicolas Jarry.

22-year-old Sinner was playing in a major final for the first time and got there by ending Novak Djokovic's long domination in the tournament in a semifinal upset.

A comeback for the ages by Jannik Sinner; Beats Daniil Medvedev to win Australian Open

It was a comeback for the ages by Jannik Sinner.
The 4th seed Italian rallied from 2 sets down to take the Australian Open final from Daniil Medvedev and clinched his maiden Grand Slam title.

22-year-old Sinner was playing in a major final for the first time and got there by ending Novak Djokovic's long domination in the tournament in a semifinal upset.

It was a comeback for the ages by Jannik Sinner.
The 4th seed Italian rallied from 2 sets down to take the Australian Open final from Daniil Medvedev 3-6, 3-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-3 on Sunday and clinched his first Grand Slam title.
What made this feat even more special was the fact that he became the first Italian to win the Australian Open title.
22-year-old Sinner was playing in a major final for the first time and got there by ending Novak Djokovic's long domination in the tournament in a semifinal upset.
For 2021 U.S. Open champion Medvedev, the loss was his fifth in six major finals. 3rd-seeded Medvedev set a record with his fourth five-set match of the tournament and time on court at a major in the Open era, surpassing Carlos Alcaraz's 23:40 at the 2022 U.S. Open.
Medvedev lost back-to-back finals here to Djokovic in 2021 and to Rafael Nadal &mdash; after holding a two-set lead &mdash; the following year. He won three five-set matches to reach the championship match this time and had two comebacks from two sets down. Sinner only dropped one set through six rounds &mdash; in a third-set tiebreaker against Djokovic &mdash; until his five-set comeback win on Sunday.

The second seed Daniil Medvedev lost a five-setter against 23-year-old Seyboth Wild from Brazil.

<h2>The second seed Daniil Medvedev lost a five-setter against 23-year-old Seyboth Wild from Brazil.</h2>

In a stunning upset at the French Open, second seed Daniil Medvedev suffered an early exit in the opening round, falling to Brazilian qualifier Thiago Seyboth Wild in a grueling five-set match.
Playing on the historic Philippe Chatrier court, where Brazilian tennis legend Gustavo Kuerten had claimed three championships, the 23-year-old Seyboth Wild showcased his attacking style to the delight of the crowd.
After taking the first set, he appeared to lose his opportunity when he squandered a 6-4 advantage in the second-set tie-break and missed a straightforward overhead, gifting Medvedev the set.
But despite winning the third set as well, the Russian star couldn't maintain his momentum as Seyboth Wild staged a remarkable comeback in the fourth set. Breaking Medvedev's serve three times in the decisive fifth set, the Brazilian triumphed with a scoreline of 7-6 (5), 6-7 (6), 2-6, 6-3, 6-4, securing his first-ever Grand Slam victory with a total of 69 winners.

The third-seeded Russian has now beaten Djokovic five times in nine encounters.

The Serbian was broken twice in the opening set, breaking Medvedev once, and the world number one was then broken again in the opening game of the second set.

The Serbian superstar&nbsp;Novak&nbsp;Djokovic&nbsp;lost the Dubai championship quarter-final and his World No. 1 ranking as well on Thursday. After an unexpected straight-set loss to Jiri&nbsp;Vesely, Daniil&nbsp;Medvedev&nbsp;replaced the 20-time Grand Slam Champion as the new world No. 1.&nbsp; Djokovic&nbsp;who could not play in the Australian Open after the vaccination row was ousted by the Czech tennis player who is ranked 123 in the world after he won 6-4, 7-6 in Dubai. Meanwhile, US Open champion&nbsp;Medvedev&nbsp;who was the Australian Open runner up became the first Tennis player apart from the Big 4, Rafael Nadal, Andy Murray, Noak&nbsp;Djokovic,&nbsp;and Roger Federer&nbsp;to take the Tennis top spot since 2004.&nbsp; Djokovic&nbsp;needed to at least reach the semifinals&nbsp;to maintain his position in the world rankings which he had reigned for a record no. of 361 weeks. Djoko&nbsp;congratulated the 26-year-old for&nbsp;achieving the feat. Before the tournament started, the Serb ace had said that he would be the first to congratulate the Russian player if he replaces him.&nbsp;

Rafael Nadal who scripted history on Sunday at Melbourne Park said that he wasn't even sure one and a half months back if this would be his last Aus Open. In the post-match presentation, the elated Spaniard who won his record-extending 21st Grand Slam said that one month and a half ago he didn't know if he will be able to be back on the tour playing tennis again and went on to say that nobody knows how much I fought to be here. Nadal had a tough 2021, he suffered a career-threatening foot injury, was down with Covid-19 in December, was not even an absolute favorite this year. His luck hardly worked in Australia in the past years, but despite everything, the 6th seeded player rose to the occasion and picked up his 2nd Australian Open title at the Rod Laver Arena after defeating Russia's Daniil Medvedev who had a fabulous run at this year's Australian Open. Calling this win the most unexpected one, Nadal said that he is ready to enjoy more moments like these.
