Andrey Rublev is currently the 2nd ranked Russian after Daniil Medvedev according to the ATP rankings. Rublev is known for his thunderbolt forehands backed up by loud grunts in the court. The world number 7 has had a hot temper during matches but keeps his cool with fellow players. He has an attacking persona while playing but is the straight opposite in press conferences and interviews.
Andrey Rublev’s presence is always felt on the court and off the court is known to be a down-to-earth person. He has kept his private life out of the public eye. The 25-year-old has been in a relationship with Anastasija Homutova for over 7 years. The couple has not shared many of their moments together on social media and has been focusing on each other’s careers.
