Casper Ruud was able to defeat Karen Khachanov in the quarterfinals of the ATP Masters 1000 Rome 2026 in a match marked by the interruption due to rain, which completely changed the performance of both players. The Norwegian started dominating clearly, but after returning to the court post-rain, he found the Russian very inspired. In the third set, Ruud rediscovered his best form to secure a spot in the semifinals. The result was 6-1 1-6 6-2, and he awaits the winner of the match between Jódar and Darderi.
