Plagued by exclusive spells for several years, Rublev and Tsitsipas will be the first to break the spell in 2025

Norwegian No. 1 Ruud has always been nicknamed the most depressed man in tennis by fans and netizens, and he has reached three Grand Slam finals, but he has encountered strong resistance from his opponent and returned empty-handed! But compared to the two brothers of Rublev and Tsitsipas, Ruud's story seems to be insignificant.



Although Rublev is prone to emotional loss of control on the field, you have to admit that he has always had hard power.


It feels very strange that after breaking the embarrassment of breaking the zero title of the Masters, Rublev has not been able to go further in the Grand Slam arena, and every time he reaches the quarterfinals, the curse on his head starts to kick in, and then the ruble baby stops moving forward and goes straight home.


The first time a Russian star reached the quarterfinals of a Grand Slam was at the 2017 US Open.


Rublev, who was only in his third year at the Grand Slam and had never made it past the second round before, reached the quarterfinals at the US Open, so you can imagine what the surprise and anticipation he will bring to fans.



Just when everyone thought that Rublev's record in the Grand Slam would blossom like sesame seeds and quickly climb to the peak of his tennis career, no one expected that the Grand Slam quarterfinals would become an "exclusive curse" on his head, and from 2017 to 2024, he will advance to the Grand Slam quarterfinals a total of ten times, only to fall outside the semifinals.


What saddened Rublev the most was that at the US Open, where everyone screamed for him for the first time in a Grand Slam, the Russian star fell outside the semi-finals four times. You must know that the US Open was once considered by the outside world to be Rublev's blessed land, but I really didn't expect that even in the blessed land, fate would still be so cruel to the ruble baby.



2023 was Rublev's best year at a Grand Slam, reaching the quarterfinals of the Australian Open, Wimbledon and US Open, with the exception of a third-round finish at the French Open. I thought that after entering the 2024 season, Rublev would definitely work hard and break the curse of the sad quarterfinals in one fell swoop on the basis of 2023, but I never thought that after being cursed again at the Australian Open at the beginning of the year, by the end of the season, Rublev's performance in the Grand Slam was simply terrible, with only 9 wins and 4 losses, which makes it hard to believe that this is the report card handed over by the Ruble baby in the Grand Slam tournament.


Ten to the quarterfinals, always missing the chance to go further in the Grand Slam, everyone can deeply feel Rublev's depressed mood. Before the 2025 season arrived, Rublev bluntly said that he would "win at least one Grand Slam men's singles quarterfinals", and it seems that the ruble baby has endured the curse of the quarterfinals, and he vows to risk his life to break the "exclusive curse of the quarterfinals" on his head.



Someone like Rublev who was plagued by spells, and the Greek brother Tsitsipas!


Tsitsipas can conquer the Masters and climb to the top of the year-end finals, but he has not been able to have the last laugh in the 500 tournament, which is also a mystery that Tsitsipas left to fans and netizens. The reason is simple, relative to the difficulty of winning the championship and the intensity of competition, it is obvious that the Masters and the year-end finals are higher, and the 500 is obviously worse. But the Greek brother just can't pierce the window paper of the 500 race, as long as he enters the finals, he will be "cursed", but he can't replace the plate in his hand with a trophy, you can imagine how crazy the Greek brother is.


One of the things that Tsitsipas is impressed about is that he has been able to reach at least one 500 final every year for seven years, from 2018 to 2024. So far, Tsitsipas has reached the finals of the 500 11 times, but all of them have come home empty-handed.



The first time the Greek reached the final of the 500 tournament was in Barcelona, but he was unlucky enough to meet the king of clay, Nadal, in the final, and the loss was completely understandable. But it was from the loss to Nadal that I was like a curse in the 500 tournament, to the point where anyone could lose. If it is not surprising that he continues to lose to Nadal or Djokovic, Zverev Jr. and Alcaraz, then it is surprising that Tsitsipas will lose to Aliassime and Ruud, who are not as good as him as a whole, because he was the absolute favorite to win the championship on both occasions, but in the end he staged a hot script that makes it impossible to know where he went wrong.


can lose 11 finals in a level event, it is estimated that looking at the entire tennis world, there may only be Tsitsipas, which is why many fans and netizens now mention this, bluntly saying "Tsitsy is definitely cursed, otherwise why can't he always attack the 500 Castle".



Rublev has shouted the slogan of breaking the curse this year, can Tsitsipas make a beautiful comeback in the 500 season and break the curse above his head in one fell swoop? This has become one of the biggest attractions in the tennis world at the moment, and everyone wants to see who can break the curse first!(Source: Tennis House Author: Starry Sky of Moon River)
