During their semi-final clash, there was a doubtful ‘let’ where both, Andrey Rublev and Grigor Dimitrov thought that the ball had touched and rolled over the net. To solve this, Rublev offered to replay the point to which Grigor said that it was not his fault and that the point went to the Russian. Such is the sportsmanship spirit with which the two play the sport.
