Andrey Rublev surprised by revealing that he underwent surgery after the US Open. Now, the Russian spoke a bit more in detail about how he almost lost one of his testicles. During a press conference in Stockholm, Rublev humorously recounted how he had to go back to the operating room urgently to avoid the amputation of one of his testicles. "Now I feel perfect, everything went well. I don't know how to say it in an intelligent way, let's say it in a funny way. I almost lost a testicle. I'm very lucky because they say you only have 5 or 6 hours if the blood stops circulating there, and then they have to amputate. I don't know why I said, 'let's go to the hospital to see why I have a weird sensation.' As soon as they checked it, they urgently took me to operate on me. I was operated on in three or four hours. Everything went well. The last thing I did before falling asleep was sign a paper allowing my testicle to be amputated. So that was the last thing I saw before the operation," he said with laughter.
