Wimbledon 2022 finalist Australian tennis player Nick Kyrgios expressed his words of support for Russian Andrei Rublev on his social networks
“It is an important move by Bublik, who stated that he wanted to continue the match. My respect for him. I sympathize with Rublev. “Kyrgios did not deserve this disqualification,” he wrote.
On March 1, Rublev was disqualified in the semifinal match against Kazakhstan representative Alexander Bublik at the tournament in Dubai. The Russian cursed the line judge obscenely in Russian. It was not the president who drew attention to the mat, but another line judge who spoke Russian. It is worth noting that Bublik expressed his desire to continue the meeting.
Rublev was furious and tried to convince the superior that he had not sworn and that the Russian-speaking referee’s translation was not entirely correct.
As a result, Rublev was disqualified and stripped of all the points and prize money he earned throughout the tournament.
