He then beat Félix Auger-Aliassime and Nuno Borges to reach the quarterfinals. In the quarterfinals and semifinals, he won back-to-back five-set matches against Hubert Hurkacz and Alexander Zverev, recovering from two sets down against Zverev. This put him into his third Australian Open final, where he led Jannik Sinner by two sets to love but lost in five sets. The loss made Medvedev the only man in the Open Era to lose two major finals after holding a two-set lead, following his 2022 Australian Open final loss to Rafael Nadal.
Across the tournament, Medvedev played four five-set matches and set records for most time on court at a Grand Slam (24 hours 17 minutes) and most sets played in a singles major (31).
