Rublev Looking to Impress
Stunned by Cameron Norrie in the semifinal of the San Diego Open last week, Andrey Rublev will begin his campaign at Indian Wells on Saturday.
He hasn’t quite had the same impact that he had last season, when he won won all five of his ATP finals, but a 46-16 record in 2021 so far is still extremely impressive and that includes runs to four finals. However, Rublev has added just one title to his previous seven this year, winning in Rotterdam by beating Marton Fucsovics in the final.
The 23-year-old is 30-9 on hard courts this year and is 9-3 from the last four tournaments, which includes a runner-up finish in Cincinnati, a third-round exit from the U.S. Open and a semifinal finish in San Diego.
Also a finalist in Monte-Carlo and Halle this year, Rublev will be looking to make another deep push at Indian Wells.
