Exciting Madrid Open Men’s Singles Final: Andrey Rublev vs Felix Auger-Aliassime – Watch Live on Sky Sports Tennis!
In a surprising turn of events, Andrey Rublev and Felix Auger-Aliassime will face off in the Madrid Open men’s singles final, set to be broadcast exclusively live on Sky Sports Tennis from 5.30pm BST on Sunday.
Rublev, who arrived in Madrid on a four-game losing streak, has turned his fortunes around with four consecutive wins in the Spanish capital. His impressive run includes a notable victory against two-time defending champion Carlos Alcaraz in the quarter-finals.
Reflecting on his recent success, Rublev, a 10-time Grand Slam quarter-finalist, emphasized the unpredictable nature of tennis, stating, “One week can change everything… you can’t perform always at 100 per cent.” The Russian player is aiming for his 16th career title and his first Masters 1000 title since Monte-Carlo last year.
On the other side of the net, Auger-Aliassime has had a smoother path to the final, benefiting from opponents’ retirements in the earlier rounds. The Canadian player, ranked 35th, will be seeking his sixth career title and his first since winning in Basel in October.
The Madrid Open has been marred by injuries and withdrawals, with top players like Novak Djokovic and Daniil Medvedev pulling out of the tournament. Despite the challenges, the final promises to be an exciting showdown between Rublev and Auger-Aliassime.
As tennis fans eagerly anticipate the final, they can also look forward to upcoming tournaments on the clay-court season, including the French Open at Roland Garros.
