Russian tennis player Andrei Ruble c will be favorite in US Open first-round match, says former world’s second-ranked junior Anastasia Pivovarova .
In the first round, Rublev will play with the representative of Finland Emil Ruusuvuori , against whom he had already lost in the second round of the Masters Series tournament in Cincinnati. The match will take place on August 29.
– Rublev’s loss in Cincinnati was very unexpected, especially with the score that Andrei lost. In such a heated fight, the more experienced player usually wins. In tennis, the law of meanness often works, and when you go to the next tournament from a grid of 128 people, you end up with the same opponent.
Andrei will be the favorite of this match, Emil’s performance will no longer surprise him. I expect a confident victory from him, because Andrey has no time to prepare, already in the second round Gaël Monfils can wait for him, he managed to get back into shape after the break and poses a serious threat, – Pivovarova told Gazeta.Ru.
The tournament’s main draw matches will be held in New York from August 28 through September 10.
