Tsitsipas, Alcaraz & Ruud To Come Good On Grass?: Stefanos Tsitsipas has not been past the fourth round in four appearances at Wimbledon but the Greek’s maiden grass-court title, clinched with victory against Roberto Bautista Agut in Mallorca on Saturday, suggests the fourth seed is starting to find his feet on the surface.

Third seed Casper Ruud and fifth seed Carlos Alcaraz are both relatively inexperienced at Wimbledon, but a stellar first half of 2022 for both men suggests neither should be discounted for a deep run in London. Roland Garros finalist Ruud chases his maiden Wimbledon win in his first-round clash against Albert Ramos-Vinolas, while Miami and Madrid champion Alcaraz takes to grass for the first time on Tour this year against the dangerous Jan-Lennard Struff.

Ruud Notches Maiden Wimbledon Win

Spoiler:

Casper Ruud dug deep to break his Wimbledon duck on Monday, when the third seed edged Albert Ramos-Vinolas in a hard-fought first-round encounter in London.

The Norwegian kept his composure in a match that was twice interrupted by rain on Court 12 to complete a 7-6(1), 7-6(9), 6-2 victory, his first win at the grass-court major on his third appearance.

Ruud dominated the tie-break after a tight opening set before also prevailing in far more dramatic circumstances at the same stage in the second set. He rallied from 2/6 down to clinch a topsy-turvy tie-break in which he saved five set points. It proved a decisive moment in the two-hour, 44-minute contest, as the Norwegian broke twice in the third set to ease to victory.

The 23-year-old Ruud has enjoyed a ground-breaking 2022 season. He reached a maiden ATP Masters 1000 final at the Miami Open presented by Itau in March, before contesting his first Grand Slam championship match against Rafael Nadal on the clay at Roland Garros. He also increased his tour-level title tally to eight with triumphs in Buenos Aires in February and Geneva in May.

Despite opening his grass season with defeat to British wild card Ryan Peniston at The Queen’s Club two weeks ago, Ruud will hope his solid performance against Ramos-Vinolas is a sign his high-powered game can adapt well to the surface. He fired 44 winners against the Spaniard on Monday, including 14 aces, to cut his deficit in the pair’s ATP Head2Head series to 2-3.

Ruud’s second-round opponent at SW19 will be Ugo Humbert, after the Frenchman rallied to a 6-3, 3-6, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4 triumph against Tomas Martin Etcheverry.
