Casper Ruud playfully accuses sisters Caroline and Charlotte of being 'clout chasers' for mocking his signature tennis moves in viral video
Casper Ruud had a hilarious response to his sisters Charlotte and Caroline for making fun of his signature tennis moves in a video that recently went viral.
On February 25, Caroline Ruud shared a TikTok video with her sister Charlotte, in which they imitated their brother's mannerisms. Caroline and Charlotte pretended that their brother was a video game character from several tennis tournaments, including the 2022 US Open, 2023 Australian Open, 2022 Davis Cup, Roland Garros 2022, and the Laver Cup 2022.
The sisters went as far as to wear the same outfits that Casper Ruud had worn during the respective tournaments.
"Choose your character Casper Ruud edition," Caroline captioned the video.

In an interview following his win over Diego Schwartzman at the Indian Wells Masters, Casper Ruud gave his thoughts on his sisters' work. He stated that he had been playfully giving them a hard time for being "clout chasers," as their video has reached 167K views.
"I toy with them a little bit and say that you know, I call them clout chasers because they are using my status, my clothes to get some views so I have to give them little bit sh*t back," the World No. 4 said.
"That's got to that point in the family now where we can have fun with each other," he added.
Casper Ruud to take on Cristian Garin in Indian Wells Masters 3rd round
Casper Ruud made a strong start to his campaign at the BNP Paribas Open (Indian Wells Masters) with a straight-sets victory over Diego Schwartzman. In a post-match interview, the Norwegian said that he was happy to have played well enough to overcome the challenge posed by the Argentine.
“I’m very happy with today’s win. Straight sets, and 6-2, 6-3 might look comfortable, but it never is against Diego. You really have to play well. That’s what I did today," Ruud said.
Following early exits at the Australian Open and the Mexican Open, Ruud stated that he was feeling physically better than he did during those tournaments. He added that he faced difficulties due to the humidity in Acapulco, but was finding it easier to move around in California's drier climate.
“I feel a little bit better physically [than in Australia]. In Acapulco [last week] I was struggling a little bit with the humidity, it was tough for me to feel great out there on court, but here it is a different climate. It’s dryer and feels easier for me to move around," he said.
Casper Ruud will take on qualifier Cristian Garin in the third round. Garin registered a convincing 6-4, 6-0 victory against Yoshihito Nishioka in the second round.
