Final day in Estoril.
2023 Millennium Estoril Open, an ATP 250 tournament, on Clay, in Estoril, Portugal, 3-9 April 2023.
Defending champion:
Sebastian Baez who defeated Frances Tiafoe (5) 6-3 6-2
Final:
Casper Ruud (1) (Norway) v Miomir Kecmanovic (6) (Serbia)
Kecmanovic had won the two previous meetings between the players, both in 2019.
In set one, Ruud conceded just three points in four service games, and broke the Kecmanovic serve twice.
He took the set in just over half an hour 6-2.
Set two was much closer.
Both players faced break points in a couple of their service games, but neither had their serves broken.
A tie break was needed to resolve things.
At 2-3, Kecmanovic took a point off the Ruud serve to level at 3-3, but it was his last point of the match.
Ruud rattled off the final four points to win the match 6-2 7-6(3).
It was title number 10 for Casper Ruud, and first since the Swiss Open in July 2022.
