Ruud won't have time to rest before facing Machac in the Geneva final

Le 25/05/2024 à 12h48 par Guillem Casulleras Punsa

Casper Ruud qualified for the final in Geneva after an intense battle with Flavio Cobolli, winning the match in three sets (1/6, 6/1, 7/6) and 1h49. The Norwegian's nerves were strong, as he trailed by a set and then by a break in the final set.

Ruud won't have time to recover from his emotions. This Saturday afternoon, he takes on Tomas Machac, who sprang a surprise by beating world No.1 Novak Djokovic on Friday. Both will be looking to succeed Nicolas Jarry on the event's honours list. The final promises to be a fascinating encounter between two players who have been on top form this week.
