Casper Ruud had a fantastic run at the recent US Open where he reached the final before losing to an outstanding Carlos Alcaraz. Casper had his entire family and girlfriend Maria Galligani cheering for him in New York.
Maria posted a nice picture and message for her boyfriend on Instagram saying: “So proud of you, my love, and your amazing team.”
After the US Open, Casper will play the Laver Cup in London, which will also be a memorable farewell for tennis legend Roger Federer.
