Rublev’s opponent in the third round of the US Open highlighted the stamina of the Russian tennis player

French tennis player Arthur Rinderknech described the 1/16 match against the Russian as intense and physically demanding Andrei Rublev on U.S. Open .

The 28-year-old Frenchman, ranked 73rd in the ATP rankings, won the first set (6:3), but lost to the world’s No. 8 player in the next three (3:6, 1:6, 5:7). ).

– As I expected, the match turned out to be very, very intense. I knew Rublev had a strong kick, but such an intense match takes a lot of physical effort.

I experienced a slowdown in the second set when I tried to play long games to close the gap. It was better to play short. I thought it would sink a bit, but that didn’t happen and I lost a bit in the game myself.

Again, I was convinced that I lacked physical fitness compared to top 10 tennis players. I have to continue to work on myself, — quotes the words of Rinderkneh L’Équipe.

In the next round of the US Open, Rublev will play 123rd-row Briton Jack Draper.
