By no means, Andrey Rublev “only” can play successful tennis in 500 tournaments. The Russian won the last quarterfinals of the ATP Masters 1000 tournament in Miami against the young American Sebastian Korda 7: 5 and 7: 6 (7). And for the first time he went to the semifinals of a tournament of this category. Rublev shares this fact with the other semifinalists: neither his next rival, Hubert Hurkacz, nor Roberto Bautista Agut nor Jannik Sinner have made it so far.
Korda showed great comeback qualities and came back after a 3: 5 deficit in both sets. However, he gained a 4-2 lead in the second round tie-break. “If we talk about the second set, he could have won it more easily,” Rublev said after his success. But: “Maybe next time I will lose the second and third sets. Today I somehow managed to win and that makes me happy. “
Rublev now against Hurkacz
Rublev spared no praise for his opponent. “Sebastian is a great player, very talented. He has powerful blows, he is self-confident, he dares to do something. That is why he has beaten so many strong players. “
In the semi-finals, Rublev will now face Hubert Hurkacz, who was able to beat Stefanos Tsitsipas after falling behind. The Pole won the last match between the two in Rome last year.
