They met last season in Marbella and Alcaraz won in two sets. We don’t think this match will last long either. Ruud is certainly in good form, but Alcaraz is looking much better in the tournament.

Carlos Alcaraz is second on the list of youngest Masters’ finalists in Miami. Rafael Nadal is first.
In the semi-finals, Carlos Alcaraz defeated Hubert Hurkacz. Two sets were enough to win, but it was incredibly difficult – both sets ended in a tie-break.
Hurkacz actually played an incredible match too, but Alcaraz played better in the key moments. After the game, Hubert said that Alcaraz was playing unreal for his age
The 18-year-old started his journey through the Masters with a convincing (6-3, 6-2) win over Marton Fucsovics.
After that, he defeated Marin Cilic (6-4, 6-4) and #5 Stefanos Tsitsipas (7-5, 6-3). The quarter-final and semi-final matches were a little harder for Alcaraz as he defeated Miomir Kecmanovic (6-7, 6-3, 7-6) and Hubert Hurkacz (7-6, 7-6).

Casper Ruud also reached the final at the Masters for the first time. For the Norwegian, it came as a surprise that it was on hard court and not on his favourite clay.
The fact is that over the last year Kasper has improved his game on hard surfaces.
In the semi-finals Ruud was very lucky with his opponent – Francisco Cerundolo had played only a few matches on hard court before this tournament.
The Norwegian started the competition with victories over Henri Laaksonen (6-1, 6-2), Alexander Bublik (6-3, 6-2) and Cameron Norrie (6-3, 6-4). The only serious opponent Ruud had in the quarter-finals was Alexander Zverev. For reaching the final, Ruud defeated the main sensation of the current competition, Francisco Cerundolo (6-4, 6-1).
