And so is Sinner as well.
Round 2 was a near disaster for Alcaraz, Zverev, Draper and Rune as well, All four wre match points down andin the end managed to queeze through as well,
Chances are the two tournaments will be won by one of teh unseeded players - with Cobolli and Helecka as possible inners.
Rublev is gone because he forgot how to serve and committed Hara Kiri on himself - he needs a good sports councillor to get him out of his tirades against himself,

I tried to find comments on what happened to Rublev. What I found is that Rublev has a serious mental problem of depression. It is a tragedy - he is regarded as a friend by all the players - he is supported by the crowds and he hd many people at his feet admiting him. He obviously should receive intense treatment to overcome that problem. At present he used a prescribed anti-depresent drug for a year now - but recently stopped using it and that apparently showed again in the match yesterday.
Rupert probl;ems started in 2022 when he openly opposed the War - but Rublev has one believe - namely "their should be more kindness in the world. He may actually suffer from mental problems about the war and an overwhelming feeling of gult as a Russian that the war destroying so many people happened and hsi coutry is part of the major problem.,
