Alexei Popyrin of Australia celebrates winning his first ATP Tour title at the Singapore Tennis Open.
It capped an excellent week for the world No. 114, who could barely believe his achievement in beating his world No. 46 opponent. In the decisive sixth game of the third set, both players traded advantage points but could not get the winning point. As Bublik got increasingly frustrated, mumbling angrily to himself, Popyrin kept up his strong returns and forced the decisive error on his opponent to seize control of the match.
However, the COVID-19 pandemic halted his momentum last year, and he is glad that he has got off on the right foot this year.
