'Lucky number seven' for Ruud after beating Draper to clinch Madrid Open

Casper Ruud made history as a three-time Grand Slam runner-up from Norway when he claimed his first Masters 1000 victory over Jack Draper in the Madrid Open. Despite being under pressure to win the most important trophy of his career, Ruud dominated with a thrilling 7-5, 3-6, 6-4 victory in a grueling two-and-a-half-hour match at Manolo Santana Stadium. Rising star Draper, poised to move up in world rankings, was looking to add another major title but it wasn't enough as Ruud outclassed him in their third Masters final encounter.
