Hamad Medjedovic vs Carlos Alcaraz prediction

Carlos Alcaraz came through another ‘rollercoaster’ with Damir Dzumhur to maintain his push for an eighth Masters 1000 crown.

The Spaniard admitted he was relieved to chalk up a 6-1 2-6 6-3 victory over the Bosnian and remain in the hunt for a maiden Cincinnati title.

Dzumhur had made life difficult for the world number two at the French Open earlier this year and it was again a tricky test for the five-time major winner, who knows he will need to improve to go deep in this tournament.

Next up, he meets Hamad Medjedovic for the first time after the Serbian shocked 26th seed Tallon Griekspoor 6-4 7-6.

The 22-year-old world number 72 thundered down 14 aces and zapped 33 winners on his way to taking down the Dutchman and he will need more of the same to stand any chance against Alcaraz.

The Serb’s power may frustrate and cause more issues for the Spaniard, but the second seed often comes up clutch when it matters most and he will surely have the answers again here as he bids to produce a more consistent performance.
