</div><h2 class="wp-block-heading">Daniil Medvedev vs Adam Walton Match Preview</h2>A former World No. 1 and US Open champion, Daniil Medvedev’s 2025 season has been surprisingly mediocre. The Russian sensation is searching for his first title in over two years, and his run of six straight finals defeats since the 2023 Italian Open has been nothing short of disheartening. Medvedev was a runner-up at this year’s Terra Wortmann Open, and also reached the semifinals of the Open 13, Indian Wells, China Open and Shanghai Masters. Nonetheless, his success rate of 62% and break point saving ratio of 60% will give him some confidence.</p><figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

World No. 76 Adam Walton is yet to win a trophy on the ATP Tour. The 26-year-old Australian has four Challenger titles, and achieved his career-best performance at three out of four majors in 2025. Although his last tour-level win came in August, Walton has shown his capabilities during his semifinal finish in Los Cabos and pre-quarterfinal appearances in Miami and Houston. He has a win-loss record of 13-18 on the circuit so far – including a 7-6(4) 6-7(3) 6-2 opening round win over Schoolkate here in Kazakhstan.
