Russian tennis player Andrei Rublev complained of health problems after winning the Masters Series tournament in Madrid.
In the final match, Rublev defeated Canadian Felix Auger-Alassime . The match lasted 2 hours 48 minutes and ended with a score of 4:6, 7:5, 7:5.
“They anesthetized my toe and foot because they were swollen and had doubled in size. Impossible to put my foot in the shoe. It seemed like something had broken. They anesthetized me so I wouldn’t feel it and could play without thinking about it. Tomorrow I will go to the hospital for a complete examination. I really don’t know what’s going on because I’ve been sick for eight or nine days now, it’s not normal. There has been no improvement. My previous bad state had lasted two or three days. For the first time in my life, I feel so bad that I don’t even know what it is. My throat is completely blocked, it’s impossible to swallow, it’s impossible to eat, that’s why I have a headache. It seems that inside I am full of drugs,” Punto de Break quoted Rublev as saying.
Rublev, eighth in the world rankings, won the second Masters of his career. In total, the 26-year-old Russian has 16 victories in ATP singles tournaments. Following the results of the tournament in the Spanish capital, Rublev will become the sixth racket in the world.
