Bublik Hoping For Confidence Seeking Run Ahead of US Open
After a good run this season, one expected the hard courts of North America to suit the powerful game of Alexander Bublik.
However, he has yet to have a formidable run at any of the US Open Series tournaments this summer and will be hoping for a confidence seeking run here this week at Winston Salem.
Losing his tournament opener to Kei Nishikori at Washington Open and eventual champion Daniil Medvedev in the third round at Canadian Open, Bublik had a point to prove as he arrived at the Cincinnati Masters.
While he did well to come back and win the opener against American Marcus Giron, it was a disappointing performance by the Kazakh against out of form Grigor Dimitrov with a straight sets loss in the next round.
Seeded fifth here this week and with an opening round bye, Bublik will hope for a good start against a challenging opponent in Ruusuvuori from Finland.

Ruusuvuori Seeking Hard Court Form
Emil Ruusuvuori made an impression at the Miami Open earlier this year, reaching the fourth round of the tournament, and made another impressive run at the Atlanta Open last month, reaching the semifinals before falling to Barndon Nakashima in a tough three-setter.
Ruusuvuori, who beat Alexander Zverev in the second round in Miami and Cameron Norrie in the quarterfinal in Atlanta, has lost a bit of form over the last three tournaments, but given his liking for hard court surfaces and a 12-9 record on the surface this season, he will be hoping to regain his touch in the U.S. Open tune-up event.
The Finn opened this week against American Denis Kudla and put up a promising showing winning in straight sets with one break of serve in each set.
Bublik v Ruusuvuori Prediction and Tip
This makes for a difficult opening encounter for Bublik, given Ruusuvuori’s potential. However, the Finn has yet to hit form during the US Open series and Bublik starts as a strong favorite.
Expect a close encounter with the Kazakh prevailing in three sets.
Tip: Bublik to win in three sets: 3/1 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
