Andrey Rublev was defeated badly in the first day of Davis Cup. The 17-year-old, in the tie of the second division between Russia and Spain, was clearly defeated by Tommy Robredo with the score of 6-2 6-3 6-3. After the matych, Rublev released some surprising statements.

"I am very disappointed with the result. I wasn't in good physical condition and I wasn't sufficiently focused. I feel I can play against players on the level of Tommy Robredo. This match taught me a lot, made me realize what I have to work on.

I need to serve better, play with more patience, and improve physically." said Rublev, who responded to the statements of the same Robredo: "I knew Robredo, the eve of the match, said that Spain would defeat Russia without problems.

I can assure him within a year I will beat Tommy without problems" assured the authentic Russian bad boy, who despite being a short time on the circuit, is not very well liked by his colleagues. A few months ago threatened during a match his opponent Renzo Olivo, and always a few weeks earlier in the match in Barcelona against Verdasco, he was accused of unsportsmanlike conduct by the same Fernando.

Finally, Rublev talked about what it means to him to represent his country in Davis Cup: "The main thing is to continue working. Playing this competition is an incredible honor for me. The feeling you have when you take to the field is unique.

I want to hear it again." he concluded. ALSO READ Mats Wilander: ´Roger Federer Will Not Win Another Slam Because of Novak Djokovic´
