Norway’s Casper Ruud and the United States’ Tommy Paul are set for an intense match in the Round of 32 at the French Open!
After being eliminated in the quarterfinals of the Madrid Masters 1000, where he was the defending champion, by world No. 37 A. Blockx and Casper Ruud managed to bounce back in Rome a few days later. Indeed, the 27-year-old dominated several of his direct rivals, including J. Lehecka, L. Musetti, K. Khachanov, and L. Darderi, before ultimately falling to J. Sinner in the final. Also a finalist at Roland Garros in 2022 and 2023, the Norwegian struggled to get into this Grand Slam, facing a tough five-set battle against R. Safiullin (after conceding a crushing 0-6 in the fourth set) but bounced back strongly to dominate H. Medjedovic in three sets in the second round.
Tommy Paul, who won the clay-court title in Houston in early April, has not shone in the Masters 1000 events, losing in the first round in Madrid and in the second round in Rome. But he also bounced back in Hamburg last week by dominating top-10 player A. De Minaur to reach the final. A quarterfinalist at the French Open last year, the American also has what it takes to hope for a victory in this match.
