The end of the quarter-finals of theAustralian Open 2024 is on the program this Wednesday with the two meetings in the second part of the table. Tuesday, Novak Djokovic et Jannik Sinner held their place and will therefore face each other in the semi-finals. Carlos Alcaraz et Daniil Medvedev will try to imitate them. In the second rotation in the Rod Laver Arena, the Russian will have a lot to do against the Pole Hubert Hurkacz. The Spaniard will face another member of the Top 10 in the night session, the German Alexander Zverev. Two tempting posters.

Medvedev towards a 3rd half in Melbourne?
In the first watch gentlemen of the day, Daniil Medvedev will therefore be opposed to Hubert Hurkacz for his ninth Grand Slam quarter, the third in Australia. An opponent who has a habit of hindering him. In five confrontations, the Russian has only won twice. He lost the last two and the first, Wimbledon in 2021. Suffice to say that it will not be a cakewalk for Medvedev because the Pole, faller ofUgo Humbert et Arthur Cazaux, has been particularly solid since the start of the fortnight, particularly in service. Ready to take a step forward, Hurkacz9th player in the world, must prove it Wednesday. Note that he has already entered the history of his country by becoming the first Polish man in the quarter-finals of theAustralian Open.
Alcaraz – Zverev, act VIII
Carlos Alcaraz will also not have an easy time in the quarters since he will also challenge a player against whom he has lost more than won. Opposed seven times, Alexander Zverev has in fact won it four times compared to three for the Spaniard. This eighth confrontation is therefore the opportunity for the native ofEl Palmar to reset the counters to equality. World No. 2, Alcaraz has not yet been worried in this Australian Open with only one set dropped, against Lorenzo Sonego in the 2nd round. This shock, however, will be his first real test. Not disturbed by the announcement of his trial for domestic violence which will begin on May 31, Zverev has already been pushed twice into five-set matches, by Lukas Klein et Cameron Norrie, but always managed to get by. For his third quarter in Australiathe German will not be favorite but will offer a great challenge to Alcaraz.
