Casper Ruud Defeats Stefanos Tsitsipas to Win Barcelona Open
Ruud Captures Biggest Title of His Career
Head-to-Head H2H ATP Tour Tennis
In a thrilling match that lasted over two hours, Casper Ruud defeated Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-3, 6-4 to win the Barcelona Open on Saturday. The victory marks the biggest title of Ruud's career and comes just a week after he lost to Tsitsipas in the final of the Monte Carlo Masters.
Ruud, who is currently ranked No. 8 in the world, played aggressively throughout the match and never allowed Tsitsipas to get into a rhythm. The Norwegian broke Tsitsipas' serve four times and saved all five break points he faced.
Tsitsipas, who is ranked No. 5 in the world, was unable to match Ruud's intensity and made too many unforced errors. The Greek star was also broken twice in the second set, which ultimately cost him the match.
The live match between Stefanos Tsitsipas and Casper Ruud will take place on 21 April 2024 at 1400 UTC at Pista Rafa Nadal Barcelona Spain.
