HAMBURG, Germany (AP) — Flavio Cobolli defeated Andrey Rublev 6-2, 6-4 in the final of the Hamburg Open on Saturday for his second title of the season.

The 35th-ranked Italian player saved six of the seven break points he faced — including two at 5-4 in the second set — to beat the 17th-ranked Rublev, who was playing in his third Hamburg final. Rublev won in 2020.

“I have to say sorry to Andrey because today I played unbelievable. I am so happy and proud of myself,” said Cobolli, who won his first title in Bucharest in April. “I passed many battles this year and this kind of day is good for your mind. I am so happy.”
