For a former world No. 1 and Grand Slam winner, Daniil Medvedev has an unwanted record against his name that sticks out.

Ad Murray appeared to be in a tough spot before playing the tournament, unsure whether to continue to commit to playing on clay following first-round losses in Monte Carlo and Madrid, and seemingly growing more frustrated in every match at not producing the same level he did during an encouraging start to the year.
