The

number
nine
battled
through

Russian
Rublev
has
now
won
eight
successive
sets
of
tennis
against

and
he
is
one
win
away
from
his
fourth
title
of
2022
after
triumphs
in
Belgrade,
Dubai
and
Marseille.
Speaking
on
court
after
the
win,
Rublev
said:
“I
was
lucky
I
played
a
really
good
game
and
Dominic
helped
me
out
a
little
bit.
“Then
I
felt
more
confident
and
I
was
able
to
win
in
two
sets,
which
was
the
most
important
thing.
This
week
I
have
been
playing
really
well,
and
I’ll
try
to
show
my
best
tennis
of
the
week
tomorrow.”

closer
