“It was a very tough match. Shan is a very talented and powerful player. There were some games where I thought I had no chance. I wasn’t surprised because he beat some strong players this week.
But I continued to fight, I thought positively. The match was close until the end. I’m happy to reach the final of a tournament in Hong Kong for the first time. A lot of people don’t understand that it’s not about grading. You can be number one in the rankings, but it is still difficult to play against tennis players like today’s Fis or Shan,” Rublev said.
