Looking to steer his campaign in the right direction, Andrey Rublev will go for a momentum-boosting win over Nuno Borges of Portugal in the first round of the 2024 Swiss Indoor Basel. Rublev is eager to hit the court following another earlier-than-expected exit at the 2024 Stockholm Open. The Russian dropped a close loss to ATP veteran Stanislas Wawrinka 7-6(5) 7-6(5), falling short of his first final-four finish since reaching the final of the Montreal Masters in August. Meanwhile, Borges hasn’t played a single game since losing to Daniil Medvedev 6-0 6-1 6-3 in the round-of-16 of the 2024 US Open. The Portuguese did not participate in any tournament during the Asian swing of the ATP Tour to give his body a break from a brutal 2024 ATP season campaign.
