Medvedev makes his mark on clay by beating Rune for Italian Open title

Daniil Medvedev hadn’t won a single match in his three previous appearances at the Italian Open. The Russian beat rising 20-year-old Danish player Holger Rune 7-5, 7-5 on Sunday for the first clay-court trophy of a career that includes the 2021 U.S. Open title and a period at No. 1 in the rankings. Medvedev was previously known almost exclusively for his prowess on hard courts, with 18 of his previous 19 titles coming on that surface — the other was on grass in Mallorca.
