Is it really anything new for Andrey Rublev to pay the price for going off-script on court? Not at all. Remember the 2022 French Open, when he was slapped with an $8,000 fine for his behavior? Well, fast forward to the 2025 US Open, and it’s deja vu. This time, Rublev was docked $3,000 for dropping foul language during his second-round match.

And just before booking his spot in the round of 16, Andrey Rublev sat down for a press conference to reflect on where his tennis stands right now. Naturally, the fine came up, and in true Rublev fashion, his response was nothing but straightforward, honest, and refreshingly real. He was asked if someone should be fined for cursing.

Depends. Depends on the situation. When you are talking to yourself in a bad way, it’s my decision how I do it. You cannot, in my opinion, you cannot charge for this. If you talk to the referee or umpire with bad words, yes, like when you do it towards someone or you scream on all courts, yes, obviously. But when you talk to yourself, it’s your decision how you talk. It doesn’t matter even if the umpire hears what you are saying or not for this. I don’t think so.” Rublev shared his no-holds-barred response.
