Casper Ruud is a Norwegian professional tennis player who has made a name for himself since turning pro in 2015. Ruud is known for his strong baseline game and ability to move quickly around the court. 

We take a look at his overall on-court attributes:

Strengths:

Proficiency on clay: Ruud’s clay court game is one of his strongest suits. With his consistent play, he has demonstrated an impressive ability to grind out long rallies and wear down opponents. 

Serve: Ruud has a powerful serve that he effectively uses to set up his aggressive baseline shots. 

Movement and anticipation: He is also a skilled mover on the court, with the ability to cover ground quickly and return difficult shots.

Weaknesses:

Lack of raw aggression: While Ruud has a strong baseline game, he can struggle when he’s pushed by his opponents to play more aggressive tennis. 

Net game: He also has a tendency to struggle when coming up to the net, preferring to stay back and hit from the baseline. 

Mental strength: His mental toughness has from time-to-time been called into question, as he has been known to get frustrated during games and struggle to regain control. 

However, Ruud has upped his level over the last year and appears to be on track to continue his ascent through the professional tennis ranks.
