World No. 4 Daniil Medvedev didn't have things all his own but he stepped up when needed to overcome Denis Shapovalov 4-6, 6-3, 6-2 in the final to clinch men's single title at Vienna Open, here on Sunday.
The top seed was overpowered by Shapovalov in an entertaining first set, with the Canadian firing 21 winners to move ahead. However, the Russian player refused to go away throughout the two-hour, 16-minute clash, hitting with greater depth and accuracy in the second and third sets to force Shapovalov into errors at the ATP 500 event.
