Relief I'm sure for Andrey Rublev.
He's got to be prepared to lose serve, in line with his stats so far at this tournament.

Suddeny, Felix Auger-Aliassime has got to net and that's an element that's been missing in his game.
He's a heavy ball striker, but he's usually unable to transition to the net with authority enough.
