Ruud, eliminated but not downcast: "I'm not too disappointed".
Casper Ruud will have to wait a little longer if he wants to play a third round match at Wimbledon. Against Fabio Fognini, he was unable to escape the trap, losing after more than 3 hours of play (6-4, 7-5, 6-7, 6-3).
Very clear-sighted, the Norwegian admitted he wasn't really surprised by his performance: "Honestly, I'm not too disappointed to have lost, because I know my options on this surface and I'm a realist.
I'm trying to improve, but I have trouble moving and feeling confident when I'm on the move. I'll try to do better in the years to come."
