Casper Ruud is the current World No. 4 and will be playing at the French Open in 2023 after reaching the quarterfinals of the Geneva Open. The Norwegian has won only one title this year, which was at the Estoril Open. He went on to win the title by beating Serbian Miomir Kecmanovic with a score of 6-2, 7-6. The 24-year-old has had a below-par season so far. He would be hoping to gain momentum as the tournament progresses.

Elias Ymer is currently ranked 155 and has made it to the main draw by battling through the qualifiers. The Swedish player last played at the ATP Challenger tournament in Bordeaux, France where he was knocked out in the 1st round itself. Ymer was not able to make it to the main draw in the Australian Open this year. It will be an uphill for him task to challenge last year’s French Open runner up but he would try to give his best shot.
