Here’s a look at the French Open 2022 semifinal preview between Marin Cilic vs Casper Ruud.

French Open 2022: Casper Ruud’s Roland Garros campaign so far

Casper Ruud already has two titles in his bag this season, having won the Argentina Open and the Geneva Open. The Norwegian, however, is looking to make a bigger name for himself by winning a Grand Slam. At the French Open, he started his campaign with a win over Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in four sets before beating Emil Ruusuvuori, Lorenzo Sonego and Hubert Hurkacz to reach the quarterfinals. Ruud then managed a rather comfortable win on four sets over Holger Rune on Wednesday to book his spot in the semifinals of the Roland Garros for the first time.
