As they say, there are no easy matches in Grand Slam tournaments! Today, in the third round of the US Open 2025, two completely extreme realities faced each other: the ATP #15 against the #173. Andrey Rublev versus Coleman Wong. However, the outcome was far from what we expected. The Russian won in five sets (2-6, 6-4, 6-3, 4-6, 6-3), extending the match to three and a half hours. A remarkable effort from Fernando Vicente's protégé, advancing to the round of 16, proving that he is more determined to fight than ever before.
