Our best bet for Wednesday’s Wimbledon action.
Casper Ruud isn’t subtle about how he feels about the grass-court season.
After finishing runner-up to Novak Djokovic at Roland Garros last month, Ruud decided to take the next three weeks off to play golf and get in some well-deserved R&R rather than play any warm-up events for Wimbledon.tournaments before the year’s third Grand Slam. This out-in-the-open disinterest for grass-court tennis has certainly played its part in making Ruud an unfancied favorite at Wimbledon despite the fact that he’s the fourth seed.The other reason nobody seems interested in laying big prices on Ruud is that he’s only 4-6 in his career on the lawn and he’s never made it past the second round at Wimbledon in his career.Ruud’s opponent on Wednesday is a very different case.
