Olympic champion and two-time Grand Slam singles winner Yevgeny Kafelnikov believes Russian tennis player Andrei Rublev showed willpower in his US Open second-round match against Frenchman Arthur Rinderknech.
The match took place on Wednesday and ended with Rublev’s victory with a score of 4:6, 5:7, 6:1, 6:2, 6:2. The tennis players spent 4 hours and 9 minutes on the court.
— Rublev’s result deserves special attention. Losing the first two sets and then winning the match – Andrey showed willpower. Well done. Such matches give confidence in the future. Another thing is that I don’t know how much energy the match was for Rublev. He gave everything and spent enough energy already in the second round. I don’t know what will happen next with Andrei’s physical condition, “Kafelnikov told the Championship.
Rublev will face Czech Jiri Legechka in the third round of the US Open.
