Nicolas Jarry and Pedro Martinez will take on each other in the round of 16 matchup of the 2023 ATP Rio Open on February 24.
Nicolas Jarry hasn’t been in good touch lately and has been losing all the recent tournaments he has played in. He will be adamant to make a change in fortune and perform well at the ongoing Rio Open. He couldn’t make it past the first stage mark in any of his last tournaments, losing to Meligeni Rodrigues Alves at the Argentina Open right in the qualifying stages, and also to Riedi at the Canberra Challenger. At the Australian Open, he went past three qualifying rounds and made it to the second round losing to Ben Shelton. And at the Tennis Napoli Cup, he was knocked out by Carballes Baena at the round of 32 stage. In the ongoing Rio Open, he beat Carabelli and Juan Cerundolo in the first two qualifiers by 6-1, 6-2, and 2-6, 3-6 respectively. He beat Musetti in the first-round matchup by 4-6, 1-6.
Pedro Martinez has been in a woeful run for the past few tournaments and questions are being raised about him regarding his approach and style of play. He has not made it out of the first round stage of a single tournament and this Marseille Open must be his turnaround tournament. He lost to Hurkacz at the Australian Open, to Garin at the Cordoba Open, to Zapata Miralles at the Argentina Open, to Daniel at the Swiss Indoors, and against McDonald at the Korea Open all in the opening round. He made it to the quarter-finals on two occasions: at the Japan Open where he lost to Kwon and at the Maharashtra Open where he was defeated by Karatsev. In the ongoing Rio Open, he beat Garin in the first-round matchup by 7-6, 6-4.
