Stat of the Day: Gasquet upsets Medvedev for 35th Top 10 win, 10th Top 5 win

Daniil Medvedev was rusty coming into Geneva, obviously, having been off the tour since Miami due to a hernia—but a win over him is a big one no matter the circumstances, and for Richard Gasquet on Tuesday it was a double milestone.

First of all, Gasquet’s 6-2, 7-6 (5) victory over the No. 2-ranked Russian at the ATP 250 event was his 35th career win over a Top 10 player, making him just the 10th active men's player to record 35 or more career victories over the elite.

MOST CAREER TOP 10 WINS AMONG ACTIVE MEN’S PLAYERS:
232: Novak Djokovic
224: Roger Federer
181: Rafael Nadal
104: Andy Murray
58: Stan Wawrinka
45: Jo-Wilfried Tsonga
41: Alexander Zverev
40: Kei Nishikori

And second of all, it was Gasquet’s 10th career win over a Top 5 player (and the second-best win of his career by ranking).
