Early life
Young, famous and always active personality Andrey Rublev was born on October 20, 1997 in Moscow to his father named Andrey Rublev Sr. and his mother named Marina Marenko. His father was a professional boxer who later became a restaurant manager, and his mother is a tennis coach at Spartak Tennis Club. So preparing for a national game wasn’t a big deal for Rublev as he’s already part of a family of players. Rublev has a half-sister named Anna Arina Marenko from his mother’s other marriage and she is also a former professional player.
Rublev has Austrian ancestors on his father’s side. He often credits his grandmother, Larisa Genrikhovna Rubleva, with helping him grow up and instilling in him the values until he was 15. His grandmother used to take care of him five days a week. Rublev received the nickname “Rubi”, which means ruble in the Russian language. He has developed his catchphrase “BWEEHHH,” which he often shouts while having a groundbeat. He is fluent in three languages including Russian, English and Spanish.

Rublev took a break between careers before competing at the 2014 Summer Youth Olympic Games, where he entered the competition as a first-place finisher in all three major events. There he lost the singles match against Kamil Majchrzak in three sets and later received the bronze medal with the success of beating Jumpei Yamasaki.

2014 marked Rublev’s another debut at the Bulgaria F6 Futures where his hard work and immense focus saw him reach the Quarterfinals. While continuing his career in Bulgaria, he again reached the quarterfinals but was runner-up in doubles. He was 15 at the time and graduated in Minsk, Belarus.
Rublev started his 2021 season by participating in the ATP Cup, a well-known nationwide team event. There he defeated Jan-Lennard Struff, the German player, and later came back for a set to win the record 3-6 6-1 6-2. In the finals of the ATP Cup, Rublev defeated Italy’s Fabio Fognini in straight sets. After that, Rublev reached the first Master 100 final in singles in Monte Carlo, where he defeated 11-time champion Rafael Nadal.
He later lost the match to Tsitsipas but his performance earned him a career-best rank of world No. 7. At the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, Rublev won the mixed title while pairing with Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, defeating Aslan Karatsev and Elena Vesnina in reaching the final. This was the first time in his professional career that he had ever competed in a mixed doubles and until then he had no plans to compete again at the next Olympics.
