Andrey Rublev, last year’s finalist, will be looking to bounce back from his Canadian Open disappointment and get off to a good start in Cincinnati. Last week, the World No. 8 exited Montreal without a win after being defeated in straight sets by Dan Evans in the second round. Rublev has otherwise been in excellent form this season. He enters the tournament with a 35-13 record and three titles from three finals. In Cincinnati, the 24-year-old is 7-4. Last year, he defeated Daniil Medvedev in the semifinals but lost to Alexander Zverev in the final. The Russian is a solid hard court player who is 21-6 on the surface this year, including two titles in Marseille and Dubai.

He got into the main draw as a lucky loser, and Fabio Fognini took full advantage, defeating Spain’s Albert Ramos-Vinolas in straight sets on Tuesday. The Italian saved four of four break points in the first set and three in the final game to defeat the Spaniard 6-2, 6-3 in an hour and 19 minutes and improve his Cincinnati record to 7-8. Fognini’s best finish in the tournament so far has been a quarterfinal appearance in 2014. During the first round, the No. 61-ranked 3-year-old hit 27 winners, 7 aces, and made 25 unforced errors. He had seven chances to break the World No. 40, and he converted four of them.
