MELBOURNE: Second seed Casper Ruud refused to blame an abdominal injury on Thursday after being sent packing from the Australian Open by American Jenson Brooksby, a day after Rafael Nadal also went out.
"I gave it my all, but in the fourth set especially wasn't enough. The first two sets were sort of closer, but I ended up getting broken a bit too many times," said the world number three.The 24-year-old Ruud's defeat ended any immediate hope he had of assuming the world number-one ranking from Carlos Alcaraz, who is absent from Melbourne with an injury.
"It didn't affect me a lot, but I felt it a little bit in the second set. I hope it's nothing serious."Brooksby, who is on his Australian Open debut, will face Tommy Paul next after his fellow American beat Spain's Alejandro Davidovich Fokina in five sets. Brooksby, whose best Grand Slam result was reaching the round of 16 at the 2021 US Open, took charge in the first set, breaking twice, with the Norwegian hitting 15 unforced errors to slump behind.
