Andrey Rublev’s Jaw-Dropping Comeback at Roland Garros 2025: Match Highlights, Key Stats & Fan Reactions
• Hot Trendy News
PARIS — Andrey Rublev’s 2025 Roland Garros campaign ended under the lights on Court Philippe-Chatrier on Monday night, as world No. 1 Jannik Sinner dismissed the 17-seeded Russian 6-1, 6-3, 6-4 to book a spot in the quarter-finals.
Sinner needed just one hour 54 minutes to record his sixth win in ten ATP-level meetings with Rublev, ripping 29 winners against 18 unforced errors and converting five of nine break points. Rublev never found his rhythm on serve, winning only 57 % of first-serve points and dropping his delivery twice in each of the first two sets.
The loss prolongs Rublev’s wait for a maiden Grand Slam semi-final; he is now 0-in-10 in major quarter-or-round-of-16 matches. Speaking earlier in the tournament after receiving a walkover into the fourth round, the 26-year-old admitted he had reached “a mental dead end” and was “ready for a transformation period” as he tries to translate ATP 500 success into Slam breakthroughs.
WHAT WENT WRONG
• Slow starts: Rublev fell behind 0-3 in the opening set and never recovered.
• Second-serve vulnerability: Sinner won 65 % of points on Rublev’s second delivery.
• Baseline pressure: The Italian dictated rallies, pushing the Russian two meters behind the baseline on average.
KEY STAT: Rublev has now lost 12 straight sets to top-five opponents on clay, a streak dating back to Monte-Carlo 2024.
RUBLEV’S 2025 ROLAND GARROS PATH
1R: d. Daniel Altmaier 6-4, 7-5, 7-6(4)
2R: d. Taro Daniel 6-3, 6-2, 6-3
3R: advanced via walkover (Arthur Fils)
4R: l. to Jannik Sinner 1-6, 3-6, 4-6
NEXT STEPS
Rublev is scheduled to begin his grass-court swing in Halle, where he reached the final in 2023. With 720 ranking points dropping from last year’s Wimbledon quarter-final, he’ll need a deep run to stay inside the Top 20.
Sinner, meanwhile, will face either Casper Ruud or Hubert Hurkacz for a place in the semi-finals, knowing a title run in Paris would keep him atop the Pepperstone ATP Rankings for at least another month.
