Prediction
Top seed Andrey Rublev will face former US Open champion Dominic Thiem in the Gijon Open semifinal on Saturday.
Rublev, who has won three championships, has had a successful year. The Russian enters the Spanish city of Gijon full of optimism after reaching the semifinals of the US Open and Astana Open. The World No. 9 defeated Ilya Ivashka in three sets. He was the top seed in the competition. Later, he had no trouble defeating fifth seed Tommy Paul, winning 7-5, 6-3.
Thiem’s progression to his second semifinal of the year shows that his recovery from a wrist injury is going well. The Austrian defeated the fourth seed, Francisco Cerundolo, 6-4, 6-3, playing some outstanding tennis. In three matches at Gijon, the former World No. 3 has only dropped one set, to Marcos Giron in the second round. The clay courts in Gstaad hosted Thiem’s lone other tour-level semifinal of the year in July. At Kitzbuhel and Bastad, he also made it to the final eight. The 29-year-old also excelled at the Rennes Challenger, where he came in second place to Ugo Humbert.
Even though Thiem faltered in Metz and Tel Aviv following that, he seemed to have found his footing in Gijon this week but Rublev’s serve and forehand will be very difficult for the Austrian to handle. The top seed at Gijon served 10 aces in his first match, and four in his second. He won eighty four percent of the points on his first serve with 17 victories to Paul’s nine unforced errors. Rublev’s only cause for concern is his 33% break point conversion (3/9 won). If the Russian can show early aggression and seize his opportunities, he has a good chance of defeating Thiem for the fourth time in a row.
