Casper Ruud about departure from Roland-Garros: ‘A shame, of course’

Casper Ruud about departure from Roland-Garros: ‘A shame, of course’


Casper Ruud used his brief press conference to express in unusually careful terms a regret he didn’t quite want to express out loud after losing to João Fonseca 7-5 7-6(8) 5-7 6-2 in the fourth round of Roland-Garros on Sunday.

The regret was the tiebreak in the second set. When asked what separated the first three sets, which were close, from the rest of the match, Ruud reached for a specific point. “There was one set point in the second – or a few,” he said. “The forehand he hit was marginal, both in and out. It was clearly called. So if I win that set, maybe it could be two-one up instead of two-one down. Instead of love-two you’re one-all. So that’s obviously a shame in my situation.”

What followed, for the rest of the match, was praise for Fonseca. “I expected a tough match, and it ended up being difficult. He doesn’t have that many weaknesses in his game. He has already beaten many top players, including Novak two days ago. The way he plays is downright impressive.”

Ruud: the “yes” means everything

Ruud, a two-time Roland-Garros finalist, has too much experience to spend a press conference disputing a forehand call. He mentioned the moment, mentioned the marginality and moved on.

Asked if this loss was harder than an ordinary defeat – given the draw, given that his name had emerged as a potential winner of the tournament, given his record on clay. Ruud’s answer was one word. “Yes.” Nothing else.

Ruud, number two in Rome, had come across Roland-Garros as the player whose name had been mentioned most often in the post-Sinner, post-Alcaraz, post-Djokovic open-draw conversation, with or behind Zverev. He was one win away from winning in Paris in 2022 and 2023. With this result he is back in the Top 15 in the ATP rankings (No. 14).
