✨ Match Highlights
Draper backed his way into the finals with great confidence and composure breaking Ruud’s serve early on in the first set to never look back securing powerful forehands, great smart court coverage, and precision under pressure granting him the upper hand throughout the match.
The Norwegian sensation showed promise but was completely devoid of any options with Draper's firsthand thunderous pace combined with an aggressive baseline game. Though he is known for his grips and je ne sais quoi for the clay court, Ruud could never find a handle while facing Draper’s overwhelming onslaught of raw power.

This win serves as Draper's second Masters 1000 title and, more significantly, enhances his confidence as he approaches the rest of the clay season. The audience in Madrid, together with millions who followed the event globally, witnessed the emergence of a new tennis superpower.
