With Marat, I enjoy training more," states Rublev
Andrey Rublev had brought Marat Safin into his team starting from the clay court season this year 2025. For the media outlet Bolshe, he explained how Safin had changed his training sessions.
He states: "Thank God, training has always been a pleasure for me. I never had to force myself to work, or to come train every day. I ended up developing that habit.
No matter my situation, no matter the problems I had, going to train became automatic.
I enjoy it a bit more now, because Marat arrived with his vision. Furthermore, I continue to focus on new perspectives.
And during training, it gives me new sensations, new emotions. So, I would even say that training has become a new pleasure.
