He applied pressure from the very start, securing a break advantage after just three games. Although he dropped one of his service games, he responded with two more, which easily gave him the first set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Marvellous Medjedovic \ud83d\udc4f<br> <br>He soars into R3 with a 6-3 6-4 7-5 win over Juan Cerundolo \ud83d\udd25<br> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/rolandgarros?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@rolandgarros<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/rolandgarros?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#rolandgarros<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/medjedovic?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#medjedovic<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ZHyhymfcaE\">pic.twitter.com\/ZHyhymfcaE<\/a><\/p>&mdash; ATP Tour (@atptour) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/atptour\/status\/1927691635502043154?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 28, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite making quite a few errors, the Serbian player also had a huge number of winners (a remarkable 40). He was exceptional at the net, losing only three out of 17 points when closing in. In the second set, he faced a significant test, almost squandering his lead. Cer\u00fandolo managed to break back and level the score at 4:5, but the young man from Novi Pazar &#8220;returned the favor&#8221; and took the second set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the third set, Me\u0111edovi\u0107 had a &#8220;d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu&#8221; moment, as the same situation from the previous set occurred. Rain forced the players to take a short break, after which the Serbian player secured a break. The ninth game brought his error, which the Argentine gladly capitalized on. Cer\u00fandolo sensed a tie-break and an opportunity for a comeback, but Me\u0111edovi\u0107 cut that short with a decisive break, putting an end to the match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He will now face the winner of the ongoing match between Czech Vit Kop\u0159iva and German Daniel Altmaier in his quest for the fourth round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">MORE TOPICS:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/donald-trump-declared-i-really-love-serbia-i-hope-to-come-and-visit-one-day\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">DONALD TRUMP DECLARED: I really love Serbia, I hope to come and visit one day!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/serbs-organized-a-large-protest-in-leposavic-police-blocked-access-to-the-sports-hall-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">SERBS ORGANIZED A LARGE PROTEST IN LEPOSAVIC: Police blocked access to the Sports Hall!
