Casper Ruud vs Holger Rune: French Open 2023 Preview, Schedule, Date, Form Guide, Head to Head, Live Streaming

Following his frustrating loss in the three-set JAAGate rematch during the Rome Masters a few weeks ago, Casper Ruud must have felt a strong desire for a quick rematch against his Scandinavian rival, Holger Rune. His wish is now being granted on a grander scale at the French Open. The Norwegian found himself in a favourable position, and his Danish opponent’s questionable sportsmanship added to the challenge of accepting defeat at the Rome Masters. Despite this, he maintained a dignified demeanour during the press conference and displayed great resilience in processing the loss. Rune’s decision to take a medical timeout while a set and a break down was undoubtedly the game’s turning point.

Holger Rune advanced to the French Open quarterfinals after a gruelling five-set match against Francisco Cerundolo in the round of 16. This victory is significant, especially given his previous five-set loss at the same stage of the Australian Open earlier in January. Despite this encouraging result, questions have been raised about his ability to win a grand slam, which remains one of his goals for the 2023 season.Since the early stages of his career, the former Boys’ French Open champion has suffered from physical breakdowns and cramps during physically demanding matches, and it appears that this issue is still unresolved. In the round of 16, he struggled to deal with the physicality of the match against Francisco Cerundolo.
