By Alberto Amalfi | @Tennis_Now | Saturday, June 24, 2023

Volatility takes center stage in Halle when Alexander Bublik faces Andrey Rublev for the title tomorrow.

In a Sashas showdown, the explosive Bublik maintained his mastery of Alexander Zverev 6-3, 7-5 to reach his eighth career final in Halle.

The 48th-ranked Bublik banged 14 aces and saved the lone break point he faced.



Bublik beat Olympic gold-medal champion Zverev for the third time in four meetings.

Rublev nearly doubled Roberto Bautista Agut's winner total (29 to 14) sweeping the Spaniard 6-3, 6-4. Rublev avenged buddy Daniil Medvedev, who lost to Bautista Agut yesterday.

The seventh-ranked Rublev has won all three prior meetings vs. Bublik though the pair have not squared off in more than three years.
