It will be between Stefanos Tsitsipas and Casper Ruud again for the final act on the clay. After the final a few days ago in Monte Carlo, won by the Greek in two sets, the Atp of Barcelona will see them against each other again. On Saturday, the Norwegian prevailed over the Argentine Etcheverry in two sets, while the Greek won against Lajovic in three sets.
For Ruud, there will be the chance to take his revenge, after losing just 7 days ago the final of the Principality's tournament against the same Tsitsipas. The Greek, on the other hand, aims for a second consecutive trophy on clay which would send a strong signal to all his opponents. Certainly, the Barcelona tournament will not count as much as the Monte Carlo one but it will certainly give confidence to both tennis players in view of the continuation of the season on clay. Tsitsipas has not yet won an Atp 500 in his career, although he has finished 2nd three times; in 2018, in 2021, and in 2023. Ruud is also chasing his first Atp 500. Regardless of the outcome, the final will mark a first for one of the two tennis players.
