He held serve to level but Bublik recovered and went a break up thanks to a superb backhand crosscourt winner at the start of the third set. The Kazakh, who is no stranger to grass with two finals in Newport, did serve a dozen double faults throughout the match but finished it off in style, firing a second serve ace on his first match point to land his second tour title.
