In terms of sport, Casper Ruud did not start the tennis year 2023 one hundred percent happy. The end of the Australian Open came for the Norwegian, who was second there, in round two against Jenson Brooksby. What does not meet Ruud's requirements: After all, he was able to reach the finals in Roland Garros, at the US Open and also at the ATP Finals in Turin last season.
If there's anything good about the early farewell, it might be that Ruud has now had a few extra days to prepare for the Davis Cup meeting with Serbia, to be held in Oslo this weekend. For the Norwegians it is about the first qualification for the intermediate round, which will be held in autumn. Where exactly, that also depends on who prevails in the first round of world group action.
Just in time for the home appearance in Oslo, Casper Ruud also shows himself from another side in VOGUE Scandinavia. No tennis racket far and wide, no sand on your shoes. Instead, you can see the seven-time tournament winner on the ATP tour in a sporty leisure outfit - or in an elegant, yet comfortable house suit.
The fact that fashion magazines are looking for suitable models in tennis is nothing new. Dominic Thiem, Alexander Zverev and Taylor Fritz have also been able to enjoy long stretches in relevant publications.
