“The most dramatic five-hour match between Rafael Nadal and Daniil Medvedev, obviously, tops the list of the best matches of 2019, but there were other worthy meetings that remained in the shadow of the men's finals,” the official website of the tournament says.
According to the organizers, the victory of Matteo Berrettini over Gael Monfils (3: 6, 6: 3, 6: 2, 3: 6, 7: 6), Bianchi Andreescu over Serena Williams (6: 3, 7: 5) deserved a special mention, Taylor Townsend - over Simone Halep (2: 6, 6: 3, 7: 6), Grigor Dimitrov - over Roger Federer (3: 6, 6: 4, 3: 6, 6: 4, 6: 2) and Coco Gauff - over Timaeus Babosh (6: 2, 4: 6, 6: 4).
