Andrey Rublev advanced to the third round of Roland Garros 2026 after a tough match against Carabelli, and during the press conference, he reflected on the process of change as a player that he is currently undergoing thanks to Marat Safin.

Previously, in crucial moments, I would hit forehands almost instinctively, but now I try to do different things even under pressure, like using drop shots or opening up the court more."
"Before these changes start working, you make a lot of mistakes and lose points trying new things. That's why the process demands sacrifice, and I am still far from perfecting it. Many people had been telling me for years that I needed to change, but it doesn't matter what they say if you are not ready to listen to yourself yet."
