Andrey Rublev won his maiden Masters 1000 title in Monte-Carlo by beating Holger Rune in the Monte-Carlo final on Sunday (April 16).Rune won the opening set 7-5 but Rublev bounced back to win the second 6-2 and force the match into a decider. The Dane then dominated the start of the third set, leading 4-1 and being a point away from making it 5-1. However, Rublev fought back hard and held his nerve to win it 7-5 and clinch the Monte-Carlo Masters.Tennis fans were thrilled to see the Russian reign supreme, and took to Twitter to praise him. One fan wrote that Andrey Rublev replacing Stefanos Tsitsipas as the Monte-Carlo champion was "poetic" considering the Greek had claimed last year that Rublev's game was limited."Andrey Rublev replacing the guy who said he has "a few tools" as the Monte Carlo champion is so poetic," the fan's tweet read.kr9pton@kr9ptonlulAndrey Rublev replacing the guy who said he has "a few tools" as the Monte Carlo champion is so poetic18750Andrey Rublev replacing the guy who said he has "a few tools" as the Monte Carlo champion is so poetic https://t.co/xFTvk6kPdEAndre Agassi's former coach Brad Gilbert also expressed his delight at seeing Rublev win in Monte-Carlo."Wow Ribles takes out Rune DMC from a break down in 3rd to win @ROLEXMCMASTERS," Gilbert's tweet read.Brad Gilbert@bgtennisnationwow 🤩 Ribles takes out Rune DMC from a break down in 3rd to win @ROLEXMCMASTERS522wow 🤩 Ribles 💷 takes out Rune DMC from a break down in 3rd to win @ROLEXMCMASTERSOne fan stated that Rublev winning the Monte-Carlo Masters was a positive development for tennis."Also Andrey Rublev is an absolute gem of a person.
