"In these moments, you realize that my match is not important. It's not about my match, how it affects me," Rublev said Thursday. "What's happening is much more terrible.

"You realize how important (it) is to have peace in the world and to respect each other no matter what, to be united. It's about that. We should take care of our earth and of each other. This is the most important thing."

He will face Czech qualifier Jiri Vesely for the first time in the Dubai final on Saturday.
