The American celebrity revealed that his luxury car was cut off and confiscated; Ruud was baptized in blood, but said he was not uncomfortable

American star Paul shared some of the financial difficulties he has faced recently, and even lost his truck as a result. This week, Paul performed well at the Rome Masters, beating Hurkacz to advance to the semi-finals.

Due to his inconsistent performances this season, he has been out early on several occasions and has made it to the finals on several occasions, which has caused his ATP ranking to drop from No. 9 in the world at the start of the year to No. 12 now. However, in the quarter-finals of Rome, he overpowered Hurkacz to win 7-6(4) 6-3.

In a post-race interview with the media, he revealed that he had recently lost his beloved Ford F-150 truck due to his inability to pay on time. Paul said: "It was a stressful week off the pitch because my truck was towed. I missed a couple of payments and they drove the truck straight from my house this week. I've been trying to get it back. If you knew me, you knew it was my baby. yes, I'm really desperate to get it back. ”

Sinner got off to a slow start in the semi-finals of the Rome Masters last night, but eventually came back from behind to beat Paul 1-6 6-0 6-3 to face Carlos Alcaraz in the final.

Sinner was hit by another colleague, world No. 7 Ruud, who won his first Masters title at the Madrid Masters 11 days ago, but was completely unable to resist Sinner's strength in the quarter-finals, losing 0-6 1-6.

"To be honest, it doesn't feel that bad." Ruud said. According to Infosys ATP statistics, in this match that took 64 minutes, he was broken by Sinner six times in the service game. "Even though I lost completely, this match was even more interesting than I thought. You watch him play and all you can say is, 'This is another level of.'" Forgive me for swearing, but I really don't know how to describe it. In a way, it's even a bit of fun. ”

"Of course, I want the fight to be closer, and I want to give the audience a longer and more exciting matchup. I was ready to fight, but he was better prepared than me. Almost all of the good shots I hit were better returned by him. I couldn't have responded to him with a better ball. That's the rhythm of this game. ”

Sinner was on fire from the first point in the match against Ruud. Ruud even had to save two break points when he won his only game of the match earlier in the second set. The 26-year-old Norwegian doesn't want to be too himself in the face of Sinner's continued godlike performances.

'It's almost the closest thing I've ever experienced as a player on the pitch and I have to admire him. I probably made one or two unsolicited errors on my forehand in the first four games, but I wanted to play it myself but didn't play well. But other than that, every shot he made from his racket throughout the game felt like he was going faster than a hundred miles per hour. ”

"Whether it's every shot of the forehand or the backhand, even the shots that I sometimes feel like are heavy enough, he can come back quickly. It's been incredible. That's really all I can say. ”

After a nine-game winning streak ended by Sinner, Ruud will be hoping to quickly revert to next week's Geneva Open, where he will begin his title defence. While Ruud didn't play at his best in this game, he could hopefully get his rhythm back unless he meets another in-form opponent like Sinner.

The 13-time ATP Tour champion also admitted: "The most disappointing shot I was hitting today was serving, and if I could serve a little better, of course I would have scored more direct points." Bottom line, I've probably only won one or two longer rounds. Now that I think about it, I'm not even sure if I've ever won. There may be one or two. He had the upper hand in most baseline matchups, even though I felt like I had set the ball up the way I wanted. It feels like you're playing against a wall that keeps hitting you at a hundred miles per hour. ”(Source: Tennis Home Author: Spark)
