Fans react to the Rublev’s message on social media
Andrey Rublev is quite active on social media as he loves to converse with his fans. The Russian tennis star also uses his platform to talk about various political and social issues. Notably, he recently delivered a message of peace that stated, “Peace Peace Peace, All we need” as he talked about the Russian ATP players, after his match in the ATP Finals.

Notably, fans criticized Wimbledon after taking note of Rublev’s message. One of the fans said, “A reminder that a good number of the Russian and Belarusian players have been speaking out like this the whole time. There’s an argument that calling for peace isn’t enough, but if you are surprised by this you haven’t been listening”

Meanwhile, one of the fans pointed toward the ban affecting the Russian players’ points on the tour.
Love him. Wrote on the camera “No war please” didn’t he, before it had started, yet was banned from Wimbledon, resulting in everyone else losing their points-as you know Jose!
