Cazaux pushed the solid Hurkacz in two decisive games, but the Pole, untouchable on serve and more solid in the rallies, was the strongest this Monday in the round of 16. Hurkacz will find Medvedev in the quarter. It was still a great adventure for Cazaux in Melbourne. Before his Australian fortnight, the world number 122, invited by the FFT, had never won a Grand Slam match. He was the last Frenchman competing in the men’s draw. In the women’s draw, OcĂ©ane Dodin (95th) faces Chinese Qinwen Zheng, world No.15, in the round of 16 on Monday.
