Who is Casper Ruud’s girlfriend Maria Galligani?
Casper Ruud is in a relationship with Maria Galligani, who is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in psychology from the University of Denmark. The couple has been dating since 2018, and Maria has been frequently appearing on Ruud’s Instagram profile since then, and the couple also shares pics with their dog Bajas Galligani Ruud.
The couple seems to be very much in love and Galligani is a strong supporter and motivation for Casper Ruud to do even better in his career. Despite appearing within the top 10 ATP players and winning five titles in a year, Ruud is yet to establish himself at the Grand Slam and his best performance in a Grand Slam came in the Australian Open 2021 where he reached the fourth round.
In 2022, one of the major goals that Ruud has will be to perform at his best at a Grand Slam and win a Slam title.
“But at the end of the day, it has always come back to what is important in the day-to-day, focussing on the present and I think I’ve been able to follow my path. I have kept it in my own rhythm” said Ruud about his philosophy about the game and life in general.
