Vice President of the Russian Tennis Federation Alexei Selivanenko appreciated the performance of Russian Andrei Rublev in the semi-final of the Shanghai Masters.
On Saturday, Rublev reached the final of the tournament in China, defeating Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov with a score of 7:6 (9:7), 6:3. In the final, the Russian will face the Pole Hubert Hurkacz.
— Rublev and Dimitrov had an excellent match with many great actions. Classic tennis. Having won the first set in a tiebreaker, Andrei was able to endure the unsuccessful start of the second set, make a reverse break and then confidently lead the match to victory.
Final against Hubert Hurkacz? Hurkacz is one of the strongest players on the tour, the season leader in terms of the number of successful rounds. In Shanghai, Andrei and Hubert showed confidence and stability throughout the tournament. A final worthy of the name,” Selivanenko said, as quoted by RB Sport.
The final of the Masters Series tournament in Shanghai will take place on Sunday, October 15, and the match will begin around 11:30 Moscow time.
