“My grandfather passed away two years ago on this very day… when I played here against Kokkinakis. I lost 6-7 in the third set then. Today… to beat a Top 10 player is just amazing,” Bergs said in an emotional on-court interview.

Bergs defeated Rublev with a score of 7-5, 6-4. In the next round, Bergs is set to face Italian tennis player Matteo Berrettini.
