Let\u2019s pretend for a second that Ruud\u2019s game isn\u2019t the exact opposite of Brown\u2019s. Sometimes that\u2019s the idea, though, like Djokovic hiring Goran Ivanisevic<\/a> to help him with his serve, despite the serve motion being almost completely different and on the opposite side. What if Casper Ruud, looking at the situation in this final<\/a> and seeing that his skillset is the kind that Nadal eats for breakfast, reaches out to one of the men who frustrated Nadal the most? (Nevermind also that he opts not to call Robin Soderling, who had an almost identical game to Ruud, and who\u00a0beat Nadal<\/a> here at the French Open; Brown is more fun.) What advice would the peculiar Jamaican give him, and would he be able to pull it off?<\/p>\n
