It is the battle between two giant killers as it is Casper Ruud vs Denis Shapovalov in the Round of 32 of the Italian Open 2022.
World number 7, Casper Ruud had an amazing start to the year 2022 by winning the Argentina Open Title and then reaching his first-ever Master’s 1000 final in the Miami Open. Since then his form has only been decent failing to make it past the Round of 16 in either the Monte Carlo Masters or the Madrid Open. Ruud beat B. van de Zandschulp and A. Molcan in the Riund of 16 and Round of 32 respectively.
World number 16, Denis Shapovalov had to dig deep as he beat injury struck Nadal in 3 sets in the Round of 16. Shapavalov had an excellent start to 2022 winning the ATP Cup. He reached the quarter-finals of the Australian Open and the semi-finals of the Dubai Open. But since then his form has been average at most. Shapovalov had to work hard for a first round win over Nikoloz Basilashvili.
