Norwegian tennis star Casper Ruud has more than just his successful season to celebrate this year. The 25-year-old announced his engagement to longtime girlfriend Maria Galligani via Instagram on Tuesday, sharing the joyous news with his fans.
“Can’t wait to marry you💍🤍,” Ruud captioned a heartfelt post, which included three photos of the couple looking blissfully in love.
The announcement marks a celebratory moment for the duo, who have been together through Ruud’s rise to the top tiers of professional tennis.
Galligani has frequently been spotted supporting Ruud courtside, including during his appearances at major tournaments like Roland Garros, where the couple was photographed in 2023.
Ruud’s engagement caps off an impressive year on the court. The World No. 6 concluded the 2024 season with a 51-25 match record and claimed two ATP titles in Barcelona and Geneva. His season also included a semi-final appearance at the prestigious Nitto ATP Finals earlier this month.
Fans and fellow players flooded the comments section of Ruud’s Instagram post with congratulations, celebrating his accomplishments in tennis and this exciting new chapter in his personal life.
As Ruud steps into the offseason, the upcoming year will be filled with competitive aspirations and wedding preparations.
