Casper Ruud won the ATP Geneva Open with a 7-6 (8/6), 6-4 victory over Denis Shapovalov in Saturday's final. The Norwegian third seed completed an impressive clay court build-up to the French Open with a victory that makes him one to watch at Roland-Garros when the Grand Slam begins on May 30. "This season I've been playing well on the clay and I'm looking forward to Paris," Ruud said on court afterwards. "If I am in the second week, I will be very happy." It was Ruud's second career title, with the 22-year-old having won Buenos Aires last year. rjm/lp
