In the second match of the match in the final of the ATP 250 category tournament in Bostad, Sweden, the Russian tennis player Andrei Rublev seized the initiative completely and left Norway’s Kasper Ruud no chance, honored Russia coach Viktor Yanchuk told .
Rublev won the match 7:6 (7:3), 6:0. The meeting lasted an hour and a half.
– Everything was decided by the first set, of course. It was an absolutely equal game with an exchange of blows, sometimes even long. However, everything happened at a brisk pace and was accompanied by powerful blows. Andrei played more reliably in the decisive moment of the tie-break. His character is half of his victories. Often he got out of difficult situations precisely because of his combative character. Beat until the end. Rublev needs to be knocked down for him to lose, but he doesn’t fall, but confidently slams!
In Andrey’s game, a straight kick with a run-in stands out. He terrifies the opponent on the right and often scores from the back line. In this match, he often managed to hit from the left along the line. Nevertheless, the opponent tried to play more to the left, but Rublev did not give in. Andrey also demonstrated a more stable and stronger serve, made a lot of aces and also used under the net chop shots. Ruud expected long shots under the back line, and unexpected shorts followed. The Norwegian was not ready for this. Sometimes it was possible to resist that, of course, but those were just episodes.
Otherwise, in the second set, Andrei completely took the initiative and gave his opponent no chance. It was clear that Rublev would not give up this match. He nailed it all in the second set, and Ruud didn’t even figure out how to win the match, Yanchuk told .
The Russian occupies the seventh line of the ATP ranking, Ruud is in fourth position.
