The duo will meet again in the showdown on Sunday inside the Arthur Ashe Stadium, where there are likely to be some emotional memories for the 23-times Grand Slam champion.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Djokovic was on course for a calendar slam heading into the final major of the year. The tennis icon had won the Australian Open, Wimbledon and the French Open &#8211; and hoped to complete a rare feat at Flushing Meadows.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, he was ultimately stunned by Medvedev on Arthur Ashe, with the Russian winning in straight sets that all ended 6-4. It was a match largely overshadowed by the tremendous feat of Emma Raducanu, who won the women\u2019s singles final 24 hours earlier.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But it was an emotional moment for Djokovic, who admitted to crying on the court. He had received a standing ovation as Medvedev served for the match, while some supporters chanted: \u201cNole! Nole!
