Andrey Rublev captured his second Masters 1000 title at the Mutua Madrid Open, with a 4-6 7-5 7-5 comeback victory against Felix Auger-Aliassime.
Andrey Rublev overcame a virus to capture his second Masters 1000 title at the Mutua Madrid Open, with a 4-6 7-5 7-5 comeback victory against Felix Auger-Aliassime. The 26-year-old, who triumphed in Monte-Carlo in 2023, arrived in the Spanish capital off the back of a four-match losing streak. However, the seventh seed played close to his best to reach the final and then dug deep in the title match to earn the biggest win of his year after two hours and 47 minutes.
The Russian also found his range on his first serve and constantly put Auger-Aliassime on the backfoot before clinching the decisive break when he was up 6-5 to force a decider. It was a case of deja vu in the final set too which went with serve until Rublev broke again at 6-5. Auger-Aliassime was under pressure as he served to stay in the contest but he made two double faults, the second handing the title to Rublev in an anti-climactic end to the final.
