The current tennis scene is taking a turn towards an era of young players. After names like Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, who gained recognition because of their rapid rise, Casper Ruud is on his way to joining the elite club. Besides the growing fan base that he has been creating lately, the Norwegian also has her mother as a superfan by his side. But did you know that she also has explored the streets of the tennis world as a player?

Lele Ruud, the consistent support behind Casper Ruud’s success, has played a crucial role in developing Casper’s love for the racquet sport. While many know her as Casper’s mom, Lele herself has a big chapter of sporting history in the world of tennis.

Growing up in Norway, Lele developed a liking for the sport at a very young age and therefore shifted her focus towards upskilling herself to compete at both national and international levels. Although she prefers to stay out of the media spotlight, Lele can often be spotted in Casper’s box with a camera in hand.

From being a part of long travel routes for the tournaments to cheering passionately from the stands, Lele Ruud is a constant motivational presence. Looking at the heights that Lele achieved in her career as a player, her massive presence in the tennis scene saw her represent Norway in the prestigious Fed Cup, through which she presented her talent on the international stage.

As she continued to explore her ways through the tennis courts all across the globe, destiny made her come across Christian Ruud, Casper’s father, who is also a former tennis pro. Together, they not only formed a tennis-loving family but also made sure to pass on the legacy to their son.

Casper Ruud regards his mother as the number-one fan

Lele Ruud tries not to miss any of his matches and travels with him everywhere, despite having crossed the line of her 50s. Reflecting on the immense support that her mother has always extended, Casper says his mom is his biggest fan and has helped him a lot. He also thinks she’s the reason he’s doing so well in his career. Along with that, their chemistry extends way beyond just a regular mother-son relationship.

The fact that she frequently drops comments on his social media posts makes it evident that they share friendly vibes as well. As both his mother and father continue to be a consistent support in his journey, it not only makes it easier for him but also establishes an example for enthusiasts and their families.
