Acapulco 2022 Today's results, winners: Rafael Nadal, Daniil Medvedev, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Cameron Norrie advance to the semifinals

Nadal and Medvedev will lock horns in the semifinals of the Mexican Open in Acapulco.

Day 4 of the Mexican Open in Acapulco featured the men's singles quarterfinals. Top seed Daniil Medvedev entered his clash against Yoshihito Nishioka as the new World No. 1. The Russian won 6-2, 6-3 to seal his place in the semifinals.

Medvedev will take on Rafael Nadal in the semifinals in a rematch of the 2022 Australian Open final in which the Spaniard came back from two sets down to win the title.

The King of Clay faced Tommy Paul in the quarterfinals in Acaoulco and started brilliantly by taking the opening set 6-0. The American fought hard in the second set and led 5-3. However, Nadal fought back and took the set to a tie-break. He eventually won the tie-break 7-5 to book his place in the final four at Acapulco.

Nadal said after the match that he would have to be at his best to beat Medvedev in the semifinals.

"Everybody knows how difficult it is to play against Daniil. I know I have to play at my highest level if I want to have any chance, and that's what I'm going to try. I have to play my game," he said.

"Everybody knows how difficult the final was in Australia. Tomorrow is going to be another battle. I know he's playing well, plenty of confidence... I am excited to play that match," the Spaniard added.

Saturday's match will be the sixth meeting between Nadal and Medvedev, with the former leading the head-to-head 4-1.

Stefanos Tsitsipas to play Cameron Norrie in the semifinals

Tsitsipas is in his third semifinal of 2022

In the other half of the draw, third seed Stefanos Tsitsipas booked his place in the semifinals following a straight-sets win over Marcos Giron. The Greek will take on sixth seed Cameron Norrie, who thrashed Germany's Peter Gojowczyk 6-1, 6-0 to reach the last four.

Norries said the conditions in Acapulco suit his style of play.

"I used the court to my advantage. Very slow, very bouncy conditions. I just made it physical points and made him play one more ball. Even though the score was easy, it was definitely not easy," he said. "I sweat through like five shirts, and it was definitely a very physical match. I really enjoyed it."
