ATP Finals: Casper Hands A Ruud Shock To Alcaraz With A Straight-sets Win
Infosys ATP Stats: Norway's Casper Ruud came up with another superb performance at the ATP Finals, stunning multiple-time Grand Slam winner Carlos Alcaraz of Spain in straight sets in a preliminary group stage match here on Monday.
Ruud upset Alcaraz 6-1, 7-5 to register a huge early shock at the prestigious season finale. The Norwegian, who reached the summit clash on his previous ATP Finals appearance in 2022, expertly capitalised on a lacklustre performance from the third-seeded Alcaraz to seal an 86-minute victory inside Inalpi Arena.
“It’s only one match, but it’s definitely one of the best wins of the season for me,” Ruud was quoted as saying by the organisers on Monday. “In terms of who I’m playing, his level, his ranking, and all this stuff. I feel very happy of course. I think we will see Carlos play better tennis than he did today, but I took care of my chances.
