(February 16, 2020) Eighth seed Casper Ruud became the first Norwegian ATP Tour singles champion, defeating lucky loser Pedro Sousa 6-1, 6-4 to win the Argentina Open title in Buenos Aires on Sunday.

The 21-year-old won in one hour and 11 minutes. On Monday, Ruud will climb to a career-best No. 34 in the ATP Rankings, surpassing his father, former World No. 39 Christian Ruud (1995), as Norway’s highest-ranked player.

“I feel a great sensation now. It is what all players look for and dream of. I am very happy with my career, although I know that I am still young,” Ruud said. “Buenos Aires will always be a special place for me, this is my first title.”
