Casper Ruud has a pronounced love of exhibition competitions. Already present at the World Tennis League last weekend and due to compete in the United Cup from December 28, the Norwegian took part in a new exhibition on Tuesday.

Held in Macau, the event saw him take on Kei Nishikori in an interesting, intense and relaxed match. Ruud was badly beaten at first, but eventually prevailed in a super tie-break against the Japanese returnee (4-6, 6-3, [10-6]).

Video highlights of the match are already available (see below)!
