Everyone lost interest in this tournament as Andy lost? Or because my boy Rublev doing well? Smacking some greek bum bum today oppaa

What do you expect?  It's only an ATP 500 &, as the name would indicate, this is a discussion forum primarily for the achievements of BRITISH tennis players.

Only a ATP 500? Which had 3 top 5 guys in it, Rublev haters don't wanna see him go 6 for 6.just to be clear is it only British players? Only for British players trained elsewhere or only for foreign players who take British nationality for assistance/resources available to them?

 Never lost interest, just following quietly. I like Rublev and, worth noting, he and Andy are mates and get on well. 

the board basically follows players who represent britain, whatever their background. 

Oh dear, junior. "Rublev haters". Behave.

Outside Slams most of the time ( but far from all the time ) we don't generally discuss anything much about tournaments in the British men and women discussion sections after the Brits exit except when someone feels like commenting on particular players, results or some occurence. Clearly though there are no rules on the matter or particular concern as to British definition. You are quite welcome to talk about Rublev here without the other silliness.

Very disrespectful towards Rublev, but when Evans wins an exhibition tournament that no-one is really interested in pants are peed

 I dont think it is at all disrespectful but there are other forums to discuss the world game , lots of them and those interested go there I think 

Im interested and a final between Fucsovics as a qualifier and Rublev is interesting and Ill watch the scores unfold. 

but talking about it on this forum , I dont see that as the best place to do that... sorry Junior, going to agree to disagree! 

Btw, lets praise Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid here as they play each other in the wheelchair final and partner each other in the doubles final, great success.
