After his victory against Draper (7-5, 3-6, 6-4) in the Madrid final, Ruud claimed the biggest title of his career. A frequent finalist, including twice at Roland-Garros and once at Monte-Carlo, the 26-year-old player fulfilled one of his dreams by lifting the trophy at the Spanish tournament.

At the same time, he became the first Norwegian in history to win a Masters 1000 title. But this isn’t the first time he’s set a record for his nation. In 2019, the world No. 7 won his first Masters 1000 match in Rome and became the second player from his country to achieve this feat.

This situation turned out to be unprecedented, as the first player to accomplish it was none other than his father. Indeed, only Christian Ruud had won a Masters 1000 match before him. The 52-year-old notably reached the quarterfinals of Monte-Carlo in 1997.

As we move to the end of this month and also closing out the year I am wishing all of those following me a Merry Christmas and a Happy/Healthy New Year.

Let's make that wish for all 2000 plus players hoping for 5 wins each day. Hoping ŵhen we open the results page to see all green, and no red. And especially NO CANCELED matches.

From me and my rotti JAZ, I bid you all good night, and see you in...

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
