Russian tennis player Andrei Rublev spent little energy in the first round of Roland Garros, but beat a dangerous opponent, said Olympic champion Elena Vesnina.
In the first round, Rublev, who received the seventh seed, beat Serbian Laszlo Gyerre with a score of 6:1, 3:6, 6:3, 6:4. The meeting lasted 2 hours and 32 minutes.
– A good, working victory for Andrey. Well done, that settled in four sets and did not bring to the fifth. I really like such victories in the first rounds of the Grand Slam: it’s not very hard, I didn’t spend a lot of effort, but I beat a rather dangerous opponent.
Rublev felt himself and the Parisian soil, this is very important in the first rounds of the tournament. Of course, Andrei’s victory was expected. No matter who is in what place in the ranking, at the Grand Slam tournament all matches are tests. The main thing is that he conducts it well and confidently. Enough labor victory! Vesnina told Metaratings.ru.
The next opponent of the Russian will be the Frenchman Corentin Moutet.
