Rublo Andrey Rublev vs G-Unit Grigor Dimitrov | UTS Frankfurt by Highlights

Andrey “Rublo” Rublev has shown why he’s been a consistent fixture in the world’s top 10 over the past few years, with the Russian debuting on the UTS Tour and immediately winning his first title in Frankfurt, with a 3-1 victory over Grigor “G-Unit” Dimitrov on Sunday. In a final that had everything, from jaw-dropping rallies, to bromance, round-the-post shots and stolen quarters, Rublo prevailed 14-13, 12-17, 11-10, 17-16 for the narrowest of victories at UTS Frankfurt. The final of UTS Frankfurt began with a bang, as Rublev and Dimitrov played out a quarter of the highest calibre to get play underway. It was a quarter dictated by the duel between Rublo’s big forehand and G-Unit’s resilient backhand slice. The Russian was dialled in initially, racing out to an 8-3 lead with some accurate forehand punches keeping Dimitrov on the back foot. G-Unit sparked to life mid-quarter, however, and powered his way back to within reach courtesy of some excellent backhand cross-court shots. H
