Now, if Rublev wins 2-0 against Ruud, the three John Newcombe Group tennis players will have the same number of matches won and set difference: one victory and two games taken out of six.
Therefore, the following criterion will be taken into account for the allocation of seats – percentage of games won.
Right now, before the start of the Ruud – Rublev game, the situation regarding the difference in games won and lost looks like this: Alcaraz -6, Ruud +3, Rublev -8.
And it turns out that if Rublev wins with a difference of 6 games, then he will overtake both Alcaraz and Ruud in the number of games won, and will reach the semifinals. And if Ruud does not lose with a difference of -6, then his statistics will also be better than Carlos’s, as well as Rublev’s.
We considered the option with Rublev’s victory in two sets. If Ruud wins, or at least if he takes one set in the game with Andrii, the Norwegian enters the semifinals from the 2nd place behind Zverev.
