Andrey Rublev will face once again Marton Fucsovics at the Miami Open and the Hungariann.1 will not be happy about that. Andrey and Marton are good friends. Rublev has a positive 3-2 record against Fucsovic and he won the last 3 matches. The last one was just 11 days ago in Dubai when Rublev won 7-5 6-2. The match lasted 1 hour and 29 minutes.
“I hope I do not play you anymore this year”
After the match in the Middle East, Marton had a funny exchange with his conqueror to say “I hope I do not play you anymore this year.” That won’t be the case.
