No problems, that was the debut of Andrey Rublev in the ATP 500 in Doha 2026, where he aims to defend his title if he doesn't want to lose a significant amount of points. The Russian was far superior to Jesper de Jong (6-4, 6-3), showing the confidence that comes with returning to a place where things have gone well in the past. The champion will now face Fabian Marozsan in the round of 16.
