Russian tennis player Andrey Rublev after defeating Henry Laaksonen said at a tournament in Rotterdam that he had asked advice from his compatriot Daniil Medvedev before the match.
“I didn’t know what to expect from Henry, but I knew how strong he was because he had some great matches and great wins against great players. Even in Australia he lost to Medvedev in the first round, and after the match Daniil told me that it was very difficult to play against him.
I didn’t know what level to expect, so I needed to analyze a bit. Satisfied with my performance and satisfied with the way I played today. I just try to concentrate on match after match. This tournament is very difficult, there are a lot of great players,” Rublev was quoted as saying by Tennis World.
