Casper Ruud captured his first Masters 1000 title by defeating Jack Draper 7-5, 3-6, 6-4 to win the Madrid Open on Sunday. The victory not only places him among the favorites for Roland Garros but also results in a significant jump in the ATP rankings for the Norwegian.
The 26-year-old had dropped to World No. 15, the first time he had fallen outside the Top 10 in over a year, but will now rise to World No. 7 after earning 900 points during his triumphant week.
Ruud, now a 13-time champion on the ATP Tour, recorded three Top 10 wins at the same tournament for just the second time in his career. He defeated World No. 4 Taylor Fritz, No. 10 Daniil Medvedev, and No. 6 Draper en route to the title.
Draper, meanwhile, moves up one spot to a career-high World No. 5 following his run to the final. Lorenzo Musetti, who lost to Draper in the semifinals, also climbed two positions to reach No. 9 in the rankings.
Several players saw drops after early exits. Among them were Novak Djokovic, who was eliminated in the Round of 64; Alex de Minaur, who lost to Musetti in the Round of 16; and Holger Rune, who also suffered an early defeat.

Daniil Medvedev, who fell to Ruud in the quarterfinals, has dropped out of the Top 10 and now sits at No. 11. As previously reported, Jannik Sinner will retain the No. 1 spot when he returns in the Masters of Rome, with Alexander Zverev and Carlos Alcaraz rounding out the top three.
