PARIS : Norwegian eight seed Casper Ruud will be feeling far less pressure in his French Open semi-final against Grand Slam winner Marin Cilic on Friday after his quarter-final victory over Danish teenager Holger Rune on Wednesday.
Marin Cilic says he is “unbelievably proud” to be through to his first French Open semi-final and has credited Andrey Rublev for showing “great sportsmanship” during the match. The 33-year-old Croatian needed four hours and 10 minutes to overcome the Russian and will play either Holger Rune or Casper Ruud in the next round. Cilic has reached the quarter-final stage of Roland-Garros in 2017 and 2018 but has broken new ground by reaching the final four.
MIDDLESBROUGH, England: The world’s best tennis players are on the court at the 2022 French Open, the first Grand Slam tournament since the Russian invasion of Ukraine began in February. Unlike Wimbledon 2022, the French Open has decided to let Russian and Belarusian players compete.
Novak Djokovic has been backed to end his career with the most Grand Slams despite his loss to Rafael Nadal in the French Open quarter-final.

Croatian veteran Marin Cilic overcame Russian seventh seed Andrey Rublev in five sets to reach a first semi-final at the French Open.

Croatia's Marin Cilic fired 33 aces past seventh-seeded Andrey Rublev to reach his first French Open semi-final on Wednesday with a 5-7, 6-3, 6-4, 3-6, 7-6 (10/2) win. Cilic, the 2014 US Open champion, also crashed 88 winners in the four-hour 10-minute tie and will play either eighth-seeded Casper Ruud of Norway or Danish teenager Holger Rune for a place in Sunday's final. The 33-year-old Cilic becomes only the fifth active men's player after Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer and Andy Murray to make the semi-finals at all four Slams.
