Top seed Daniil Medvedev’s 2022 US Open campaign will kick off against American tennis player Stefan Kozlov in the first round. Medvedev was banned for participating at Wimbledon as organisers had barred Russian and Belarusian players owing to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. However, Medvedev has kept himself busy with other competitive tennis action, including the Los Cabos Open which he won after beating Cameron Norrie in the final. He suffered a first round exit at the Canadian Open but managed to reach the semi-final of the Cincinnati Masters.
Stefan Kozlov has not had the best past few weeks as he has been suffering early exits at almost every single competition he takes part in. His latest was the Cincinnati Masters where he could not even make it through to the main draw after being ousted in the qualifiers by Dusan Lajovic. Medvedev should have a breezy day at the office but Kozlov will have tremendous home support backing him.
Daniil Medvedev and Stefan Kozlov are scheduled to face each other on Monday, August 29 at 9:30 pm IST in the first round of the 2022 US Open. The fourth and final Grand Slam is set to begin on August 29 and go on until September 11 this year.
