"Sometimes the body says stop": Ruud reflects on his withdrawal in Shanghai
After succumbing to the Shanghai heat, Casper Ruud reassures his fans. In a clear and optimistic message, the Norwegian announces: "I will bounce back quickly." In Stockholm, he will be ready to defend his chances with determination.
Casper Ruud is among the players who were forced to withdraw in Shanghai, overwhelmed by the grueling playing conditions. The Norwegian gave an update on Instagram, indicating he will return to competition very soon:
"It's tough having to withdraw in Shanghai. But sometimes, the body says stop. I will bounce back quickly. See you next week in Stockholm."
Last year, Ruud was eliminated in the quarterfinals of the Swedish tournament by Tallon Griekspoor. This season he will be the number 1 seed in the draw ahead of Tommy Paul and Denis Shapovalov.
