Casper Ruud ran to a version of Jannik sinful All tennis players hope to avoid on Thursday in Rome. The Sinner version that shakes through points, games and decides in cruise control, while its Ricochet blows pass its opponents for clean winners and jaws.
In the end, Norwegian, one of the best of his generation clay, had no answer, and he answered questions about the match as if he were still delirious from the experience of trying to get points, let alone a single game against Italy No.1.
“It was like playing a wall that shoots balls a hundred miles-one hour in you all the time,” Ruud told reporters. “Everything else that came out of his rocket and throughout the match, too, feels like a hundred miles per hour plus. Everyone only from the precursor, from behind. Even in my shots that I feel occasionally they are pretty heavy, only fire turns.
“Jew is just impressive. That’s really all I can say.”
Casper Ruud in confrontation of sin today:“It was like playing a wall that shoots balls a hundred miles-one hour in you all the time.”

Ruud had a nine -game winner that passed it through the Madrid title and in today’s quarter -finals in Rome, and he was displaying a great shape on his favorite surface. In fact, he is still displaying an excellent shape-is not as close as the tennis-minded tennis that the sinner can produce-and he did-Thursday evening.
Ruud admitted it was fun to watch the game played at such a high level, even if it were the one who was victimized by it
“I think it was more fun than everything, even though I lost 0 and 1. You just look at the boy and say,” This is a kind, yes, the other level shit ” – forgive my language (laughter) – but I don’t know what else to say. It was almost fun to witness at the same time.”

Ruud will still take a momentous moment in Paris after a successful stay in Europe. He won his first masters title in Madrid and returned to Top-10. He is now 24-7 a season. All that remains is for him to avoid the sinner in attracting Roland-Garros as long as possible.
“Of course, I wish it was a closest match. I wish I could have given people and fans a longer, closest match,” he said. “But I think I was there ready to play, but he was just ready. Everyone field of my good shooting he matched an even better back. I can’t re-answer with a better blow. That was just the match story.”
