Casper Ruud: absolute mastery

The 2021 edition of the Gonet Geneva Open crowned Casper Ruud (ATP 21). The 22-year-old Norwegian won 7-6 (8/6) 6-4 in the final against Denis Shapovalov (ATP 15). He wins the second title of his career fifteen months after his success in Buenos Aires.

Favourite of the bookmakers, Casper Ruud did not concede a single break point against the Canadian, as he did in the semi-final the day before against Pablo Andujar. This statistic alone shows the absolute mastery of a player who had just reached the semi-finals of two Masters 1000 tournaments, in Monte Carlo and Madrid.

This success at the Gonet Geneva Open ensures that Casper Ruud moves up five places in the next ATP rankings. It also earns him the label of the great outsider at the next French Open. In Paris, no player will like to rub shoulders with the Oslo native who is developing a formidable game on clay after training with Rafael Nadal in Majorca. His forehand is becoming an absolute weapon.

With the titles of Casper Ruud in singles and the duo of Australian John Peers and New Zealander Michael Venus in doubles, the book for the 2021 edition of the Gonet Geneva Open has been closed in fine fashion. Despite the limited capacity of 100 spectators and the often unfavorable weather, the tournament was a success. The presence of Roger Federer and the exploits of Dominic Stricker have, of course, fed the chronicle of an event called to grow even more. The appointment is therefore made for 2022.

A sumptuous final

The Gonet Geneva Open 2021 has a final that promises to be sumptuous. It will oppose this Saturday at 4pm Casper Ruud (ATP 21) and Denis Shapovalov (ATP 15) for a very undecided confrontation.

The Norwegian and the Canadian have never faced each other before. The No. 3 and No. 2 seeds in the draw will arrive perfectly “launched” for this first duel. Caspar Ruud is coming off two semifinal appearances in the last two Masters 1000 tournaments in which he participated, in Monte-Carlo and Madrid. As for Denis Shapovalov, no one can ignore the fact that he had two match points in Rome last week against the future winner Rafael Nadal.

Both men delivered perfectly in the semifinals. Casper Ruud won comfortably 6-3 6-2 over Pablo Andujar (ATP 75). The Valencian was the “executioner” of Roger Federer and Dominic Stricker on his way to the semifinals, but was unable to control his opponent’s forehand. He did not have a single break point in the eight games he played.

Denis Shapovalov’s task was not as easy. Against Pablo Cuevas (ATP 102), the left-hander really had to work hard to win 6-4 7-5. The Uruguayan had his chance in both sets before giving in to an opponent who seems to be on a mission this week on the TC Geneva courts. The Canadian intends to win the Gonet Geneva Open to pick up a second title after his success in 2019 in Stockholm. His problem is that Casper Ruud has the same ambition: to add a second line to his prize list after his victory in Buenos Aires in 2020.

Caspar Ruud: a fourth semi-final in a row

Will the fourth one be the right one! This Friday, Casper Ruud (ATP 21) will play his fourth semifinal in a row after Monte-Carlo, Munich and Madrid with the hope of going one step higher this time.

Beaten by Andrey Rublev, Nikoloz Basilashvili and Matteo Berrettini in the first three semifinals, the Norwegian hopes to overcome the Indian sign against Pablo Andujar (ATP 75). The son of Christian, a former Tour player who came to Geneva in 1993 to play in the Drizia Challenger, Casper Ruud can have great ambitions for this Gonet Geneva Open. Despite losing the first set to Dominik Köpfer (ATP 59) on Thursday, the man from Oslo is giving off a great impression on the TC Geneva courts. He won the title last year in Buenos Aires and feels he can hit the jackpot on Saturday and succeed Alexander Zverev as the tournament’s winner.

However, Casper Ruud will approach this semi-final against Pablo Andujar with extreme caution. The “tormentor” of Roger Federer and Dominic Stricker has shown this week that he can come from nowhere to turn a match in his favor. Beaten by the Valencian in 2019 at the Challenger in Prostejov but victorious last year in Buenos Aires in Act II of their duel, Casper Ruud knows perfectly well that he must not let his guard down at any time. Still alive after being down 4-2 in the third set to Roger Federer and then 6-4 3-1 to Dominic Stricker, Pablo Andujar also wants to believe that the Gonet Geneva Open can be “his” tournament.
