The fifth seed edged out Danish teen Holger Rune in a tense five-set clash on Monday.
NEVER-SAY-DIE fifth seed Andrey Rublev saved two match points to topple Danish teen Holger Rune in a tense five-set clash on Monday, booking his place in the Australian Open quarter-finals.
The victory put the 25-year-old into the Melbourne quarter-finals for a second time and for a seventh time at Grand Slams.“It’s not like a rollercoaster, it’s like they put a gun to your head. A rollercoaster is easier,” said the exhausted Russian after the 3hrs 37mins epic. But Rune’s returns helped create chances and he broke straight back when Rublev played into the net from the baseline.
With the sun blazing down, Rublev pounced in the sixth game of the next set, opening up three break point opportunities and he made the most of them.
