Joao Fonseca defeated Casper Ruud 7-5, 7(10)-6(8), 5-7, 6-2 — French Open 2026 R16.

  • Canadian Open 2026 R32

Fonseca and Ruud traded four sets and nearly four hours, but it was the teenager's serve that held firm late: zero double faults all match against Ruud's four, and 7 of 9 break points saved. The Norwegian had his openings — a 10-8 second-set tiebreak edge wasted, then a 7-5 third to drag it the distance — but Fonseca's 6-2 fourth ended any drama, converting 4 of 13 break chances to Ruud's 2 of 9. Winners (51-51) and unforced errors (52-52) were dead even; the difference was the Brazilian's 61% on second-serve points in their first career meeting, and first on clay.
