Fucsovics solves Rublev riddle

Spoiler:

Hungarian creates a piece of history by defeating his Russian nemesis in five sets READ MORE

Marton Fucsovics has learnt to make light of it each time the draw gods taunt him with names this season. Truth be told, it has not been a raft of names which has given him grief, just one in particular.

The 29-year-old must have been shaking his head in disbelief at the very sight of 'A Rublev' against his name on the schedule for Manic Monday. No player has tormented him more in 2021. Rotterdam, Doha, Dubai and Miami – four times in a month he had been slated to face Andrey Rublev in a draw.

Every time the more fancied Russian advanced – three times without giving up a set, once without even taking the court as Fucsovics conceded a walkover.


ANDREY RUBLEV
The Hungarian had not scored a win since his opponent was a teenager in a Davis Cup play-off tie four years ago, and with each passing conquest he looked further than ever from closing the gap.

Incremental improvements were nowhere to be seen on the scorecard against his wiry, quick-striking foe. Pundits, though, would have been naïve to write him off too soon.

This was, after all, a surface where fond memories still flickered from his junior championship-winning run 11 years ago and this was a first meeting this year on a stage where it mattered most – at a Grand Slam – and in the ultimate mental and physical test: over five sets.

On Monday, Fucsovics prevailed 6-4, 4-6, 4-6, 6-0, 6-3 to a standing ovation on No.2 Court.

“I was not thinking about the previous matches. This one was a different match. We played on grass. I really like the surface. I think my game fits the surface very well,” Fucsovics said.

“I think Andrey's game is not the best on grass, so I just was focusing on the next points. I took my chances. I didn't give up. Then that was the key.”

The world No.48 from Nyiregyhaza is through to his first Grand Slam quarter-final, the third Hungarian man to reach as far at the All England Club, but the first since 1948 and the first at any Grand Slam in 30 years.

“I think I will become famous now in Hungary,” he grinned. “Yeah, it's a big thing, huge thing. But for the moment I'm not thinking about what will happen in Hungary, if I will be in the news or if people will talk about me.

“I learn that I have to stay on the ground, and I just have to focus on the next match, to focus on my job, not anything besides tennis. I think I became very professional in these things.”

I THINK I WILL BECOME FAMOUS NOW IN HUNGARY. IT'S A BIG THING, HUGE THING. BUT FOR THE MOMENT I'M NOT THINKING ABOUT WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN HUNGARY

MARTON FUCSOVICS: FOURTH ROUND BEST POINTS
Upsets on the biggest stages had come before, most recently over Stan Wawrinka at this year’s Australian Open and Daniil Medvedev at last year’s Roland-Garros, but never three in one campaign.

Already this Fortnight, he had taken down No.19 seed Jannik Sinner and No.9 seed Diego Schwartzman, before his two-hour, 44-minute victory over the No.5 seed.

He would need to make it four to extend his stay and that means beating reigning champion Novak Djokovic next, for the first time in three meetings.

“Obviously he is one of the greatest players. He won this tournament so many times,” he said. “He's very solid, very consistent from the baseline. He's playing one of his best tennis. He won the French Open lately, and now he's playing really good.

“This is the first time I reach the quarter-final in a Grand Slam… Hopefully I get to play on the Centre Court and I want to enjoy every moment of it.”

The Rublev riddle was solved. Now to the ultimate test, solving the Djokovic conundrum.

Spoiler:

Novak Djoković kontynuuje starania o Złotego Wielkiego Szlema w 2021 roku. W poniedziałek Serb pewnie zameldował się w ćwierćfinale Wimbledonu. Życiowy sukces w imprezie tej rangi odniósł Marton Fucsovics.

Świątek odpadła z Wimbledonu. Wojciech Fibak: Okazało się, że Iga ma z tym problem
Najwyżej rozstawiony Novak Djoković nie miał w poniedziałek zbyt wymagającego przeciwnika. Na jego drodze stanął bowiem Cristian Garin, który specjalizuje się w grze na mączce. Chilijczyk stawił opór liderowi rankingu ATP tylko w drugim secie. Nie zdołał jednak ani razu przełamać serwisu Serba. "Nole" wypunktował przeciwnika i wygrał ostatecznie 6:2, 6:4, 6:2.
Dzięki temu Djoković poprawił bilans spotkań na wimbledońskiej trawie na 75-10 oraz awansował do 12. w karierze ćwierćfinału w Londynie i zarazem 50. w Wielkim Szlemie. Serb kontynuuje starania o Złotego Wielkiego Szlema. Ma już na koncie tytuły w Australian Open i Roland Garros, ale chce jeszcze wygrać w tym sezonie Wimbledon, US Open oraz złoty medal olimpijski w Tokio.



Przywróciłem masę mięśni. Połykałem TO i pomogło…
- Jestem zachwycony, że osiągnąłem ćwierćfinał, a jeszcze bardziej cieszę się, że mogę zobaczyć więcej fanów na korcie centralnym - powiedział po meczu Djoković, komentując decyzję o zwiększeniu liczby widzów na kortach All England Clubu. - Z każdym meczem czuję się coraz pewniej na trawie i nie mogę się doczekać kolejnego wyzwania - dodał lider rankingu ATP.

Przeciwnikiem Djokovicia w środowym pojedynku będzie Marton Fucsovics, z którym ma bilans 2-0 w tourze. Węgier stoczył w poniedziałek pięciosetowy bój z Andriejem Rublowem. Pokonał Rosjanina 6:3, 4:6, 4:6, 6:0, 6:3, choć przegrywał już 1-2. Dzięki temu jest pierwszym od 40 lat Madziarem, który dotarł do ćwierćfinału w Wielkim Szlemie. Ostatnim był w 1981 roku Balazs Taroczy (na kortach Rolanda Garrosa). Jeśli weźmiemy pod uwagę historię występów Węgrów w Wimbledonie, to Fucsovics jest trzecim męskim reprezentantem tego kraju w ćwierćfinale. Pierwszymi byli Bela von Kehrling (1929) i Jozsef Asboth (1948).

Półfinału sprzed dwóch lat nie powtórzy na wimbledońskiej trawie Roberto Bautista. Hiszpan został w poniedziałek zdominowany przez Denisa Shapovalova. Kanadyjczyk grał agresywnie i ryzyko się opłaciło. Skończył 52 piłki i miał 47 pomyłek. Do tego wykorzystał siedem z 13 break pointów i wygrał zasłużenie 6:1, 6:3, 7:5. "Shapo" po raz pierwszy wystąpi w ćwierćfinale Wimbledonu. W 2020 roku osiągnął tę fazę w US Open.


Na drodze Shapovalova stanie w środę Karen Chaczanow. Rosjanin także osiągnął premierowy ćwierćfinał w Wimbledonie, bo pokonał w poniedziałek młodego Amerykanina Sebastiana Kordę 3:6, 6:4, 6:3, 5:7, 10:8. Kuriozalny przebieg miał piąty set, bowiem na 18 gemów było aż 13 przełamań. Moskwianin nie był w stanie wyserwować zwycięstwa. Gdy w końcu mu się to udało, to z radości padł na kort.

Fucsovic's Fancy: 'I Like Playing Djokovic'

Spoiler:

The Hungarian is fresh off an upset win against Rublev


After reaching the Wimbledon quarter-finals on Monday, Novak Djokovic admitted that he tries not to think about who the greatest player of all-time is and where he fits into that conversation. The Serbian feels that devoting energy to that would “derail” him from the task at hand, which is winning matches and tournaments.

But the World No. 1’s next opponent, Marton Fucsovics, chimed in on the “GOAT” debate — speaking about the ‘Big Three’ of Djokovic, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal — before their clash in the last eight.

“I think they are the greatest of all time, all three of them. For me there is no difference between them,” Fucsovics said. “When I play against these guys, of course it's a pleasure for me. But they bring out the best of me, and I think I can improve my game when I play against them.”

This will be the pair’s third ATP Head2Head clash and their second meeting at a Grand Slam. Three years ago, Djokovic beat Fucsovics in the first round of the US Open. Now, they are set to battle for a spot in a major semi-final at the All England Club.

Interestingly, the Hungarian noted that he does not mind facing the World No. 1, even if Djokovic has won the first two Grand Slam titles of the season.

“Maybe his game is not so entertaining like Federer's or when Nadal is hitting the ball so hard. Actually, I like to play against him. I can rally with him,” Fucsovics said. “I played him two times, he beat me, but I like the way he plays. I think we play the same kind of tennis. We like to rally. We like to play long rallies and try to play aggressive from the baseline. He's playing good.”

Part of the reason for this is that Fucsovics is one of the fittest players on the ATP Tour. There are few — if any — players who are able to match his physicality for an extended period of time from the baseline.

“I worked very hard for it. I wasn't born like this,” Fucsovics said. “I was working every day to get this physique.”

However, Fucsovics fully understands how tough of a challenge it will be to upset the top seed.

“Against Novak, against the top guys, you cannot tell the winning strategy. I will go out there and try to enjoy every moment, fight for every point,” Fucsovics said. “That will be most important.”

It has already been an incredible run for Fucsovics, who has beaten #NextGenATP sensation Jannik Sinner, Czech lefty Jiri Vesely, ninth seed Diego Schwartzman and fifth seed Rublev. The 29-year-old is the first Hungarian man to make the last eight at a Grand Slam since Balazs Taroczy at Roland Garros in 1981.

“I think I will become famous now in Hungary. It's a big thing, a huge thing. But for the moment I'm not thinking about what will happen in Hungary, if I will be in the news or if people will talk about me,” Fucsovics said. “I think I learned that I have to stay on the ground, and I just have to focus on the next match, to focus on my job, not anything besides tennis.”
