It’s kind of sad to hear his speech as a runner up twice in a row. But he must be proud of being back to back finalist at the RG. It’s a great accomplishment. I’m waiting to hear another speech from him as the winner in the future. twitter.com/rolandgarros/s…Roland-Garros@rolandgarrosA fortnight to remember for @CasperRuud98 #RolandGarros917120A fortnight to remember for @CasperRuud98 #RolandGarros https://t.co/5qWmk7QY0kHe is genuinely a nice guy.

Ruud has never gotten past the second round at the grass-court Slam.During the French Open post-tournament press conference, he was asked whether he has made friends with grass, as Daniil Medvedev has with clay."Yeah, honestly, I think it's fun to play on grass. Whenever I said that last year that golf is for - grass is for golf players, it was more of a joke, that got taken too seriously. But I think it's fun to play. It doesn't suit my game very well. I feel a little uncomfortable in it," Ruud explained.The Norwegian said he needs time to rest after an exhausting Roland Garros, but that Wimbledon will soon become his top priority."If there is any time of the year where I need some rest and I need to recover a little bit from a long clay season, it's during a couple of weeks during the grass, so that's why I don't play too much.""But it's always so fun to come to Wimbledon. It's maybe the most historic event that we have. If you ask people around the world, I think most people will say that they have heard about Wimbledon because of the name and all these things," Ruud stated.
