Rublev went from losing several 1st rounds in a row to being the only player this year who beat both Alcaraz and Sinner. Talk about hot&cold

I am not surprised Sinner lost..remember, he is recovering from illness

Some of them playing two matches today. Not ideal.

After winning the second set, he stretched his leg and groin for a few moments.
But. Rublev was blasting the ball last night. Some truly hard hitting between the two.

Rublev the first player to make multiple 1000 finals this year, and trying to become the first repeat winner this year.

Is Alexei Popyrin the Roberto Carretero of the 2020's?

No. Popyrin has been a regular top 100 player, and has won two other titles prior to Montreal.
