2022 US Open QF: [5] Casper Ruud (NOR) vs [13] Matteo Berrettini (ITA)

[junior74]

RUDE defence!

 

[NeutralFan]

Don't look at Matteo's BH. Can give you eye cancer

You can't look something that's doesn't exist.

 

[PSNELKE]

What the hell is Berrettini doing?

 

[Nostradamus]

Mateo suck, All that spaghetti and still can't beat this Ruud boring player

 

[NastyWinners]

Everyone poops on Ruud but those two around the post shots from Sunday would have generated 15 new threads on the general pro player discussion page.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

RUDE defence!

My stream is a bit behind. Just caught up on that point. haha I knew he was in trouble when he tried the drop shot. Yes, mean defense.

 

[James P]

Holy smokes, he's tearing Berrettini apart. Good stuff by Ruud boy.

 

[PSNELKE]

Losing to Ruud on indoor HC just says it all about the state of this sport

 

[ACE of Hearts]

I think the mugtteo hype train has reached its destination. I didn’t think he looked all that good coming in.

 

[James P]

Made a poll that's related to Casper:

Wowzers.

His opponent though has been hyped . Mugtteo hasn’t looked good coming in.

 

[The Guru]

Ruud numba 1

 

[Kralingen]

Berrettini is playing his worst match of the season here

Ruud is doing well but some of these errors are just horrendous, he can’t even flatten out a FH. His movement too looks dead.

 

[fundrazer]

On the one hand I don't know if I want to see Ruud in the final, but him beating Kyrgios in a hard court slam semi would be absolutely hilarious.

In general, I agree. Tennis is in a sad state.

But you have to appreciate Ruud's level so far in this match... It's very decent.

 

[Tennis Fan States63]

Thought this could be a competitive match - still could be, but not looking good for Berrettini right now down an early break in the second.

 

[Rattie]

I was out and missed the first set. Who is this guy playing Berrettini again?

Not a real top 10 player, that's all I know

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

 

[PSNELKE]

Winners/UE - Ruud: 6-3 , Berrettini 9-17 haha

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Such depth there.

 

[Rattie]

Not a real top 10 player, that's all I know

Well he is today lol.

 

[Kralingen]

Ruud is a #1 caliber player in 2022. This is a performance befitting of the ranking.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Winners/UE - Ruud: 6-3 , Berrettini 9-17 haha

He has had a bunch of them coming in. Just keep hitting to his backhand.

 

[coolcamden]

Going straight sets Ruud.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Outclassed and quite frankly outdone.

 

[SeeingDusk]

Ruud is outclassing berretini so hard

 

[Sampras-Bruguera 1993]

Ruud is a #1 caliber player in 2022. This is a performance befitting of the ranking.

 

[Ray Mercer]

Matteo Chumpettini

Very decent is the bar to win this slam.

 

[Tennfan123]

This is delicious.
Ruud doing all the confirming I need.

 

[Sudacafan]

Is Ruud a wall?

 

[James P]

If Ruud wins this match, he'll be no lower than #3 coming put of this tournament, joining Med, Zed, and Tsitsi as the only players to reach that milestone out of the NextGen crew. Rublev peaked at #5, Berrettini at #6.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Lol mugtteo

 

[TennisFan3]

Holy smokes, he's tearing Berrettini apart. Good stuff by Ruud boy.

I'm not sure I can understand this. Isn't Ruud mainly a clay court player. Could someone please advise.

 

[Sampras-Bruguera 1993]

One thing about Ruud. His level doesn’t go through peaks and valleys like the other flash in the pan streaky players. Its constant solid play

 

[PSNELKE]

Ruud standing next to the ballkid while returning lol and during rallies. Always wondered why players like Berrettini don't change pace here and there. Slower shot to make um run forward and hit a desperation digging shot that you can abuse in return. Instead they just try to hammer to ball through Ruud

 

[The Guru]

Actually hilarious that there is a very real chance Casper Ruud becomes number 1. To think I made a thread of the hilarity of him potentially reaching number 2. Carlos has to save us.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

I'm not sure I can understand this. Isn't Ruud mainly a clay court player. Could someone please advise.

Have you seen mugtteo’s backhand my goodness.

 

[Beerus]

The Norse God becoming #1. Peak era.

 

[junior74]

I'm not sure I can understand this. Isn't Ruud mainly a clay court player. Could someone please advise.

He is an improving player, a very hard worker.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

I think he could losein the next round against whoever he faces . I hope it’s kyrgios vs ruud.

 

[The Guru]

I think he could losein the next round against whoever he faces . I hope it’s kyrgios vs ruud.

He absolutely could lose but he could also very conceivably win.

 

[James P]

I'm all in for the Casper reign.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

He absolutely could lose but he could also very conceivably win.

I am hoping for alcaraz vs kyrgios final.

 

[Sampras-Bruguera 1993]

Well the dude is better than freakin Medvedev these days LOL. So at least it’s an upgrade

 

[Wesling]

Ruud is playing like a monster. impervious

 

[NastyWinners]

I mean, that's a hell of a forehand.

 

[I Am Finnish]

Is Berrettini injured?
