The French Open will witness Casper Ruud taking on Alexander Zverev in the semi-finals on Friday, June 9.
The fourth-ranked player in the world, Ruud, has struggled all season. Sebastian Baez, the 33rd-ranked player in the world, stood in his way as Ruud won the championship at Estoril. He then lost all of his French Open warm-up competitions, with the exception of the Rome Masters (when he advanced to the semifinals). But all of it is behind us now. Ruud arrived in Paris and has improved with each match, eventually beating Holger Rune of Denmark in the quarterfinals.
Alexander Zverev's triumph this week is even more unexpected than Ruud's. He tore his ankle in a fiercely tough quarterfinal encounter against eventual champion Rafael Nadal one year ago, forcing him to forfeit the match. The German's season was cut short by surgery, and he has been gradually regaining his form. Despite having a good draw, Zverev has nonetheless impressed in overcoming period of poor serving, and in the third round, he upset No. 12 seed Frances Tiafoe.
