Sometimes you just to have stop worrying. Stop strategizing. Stop thinking too much. Stop playing it safe. Stop weighing the percentages. That’s the stage Andrey Rublev had reached as he began the third set of his final with Jack Draper in Doha on Saturday.

Rublev has had an eventful week. He edged Alex De Minaur 10-8 in a third-set tiebreaker, but it took him eight match points to do it. Then he edged Felix Auger Aliassime 7-5 in a third-set tiebreaker, in a match that finished with a whirlwind of fast-paced play and go-for-broke shots.

Andrey Rublev extended his dominance over Jack Draper in the Dubai final, securing a hard-fought 7-5, 5-7, 6-1 victory to claim his second career title at the Qatar Open.
