Casper Ruud and Nicolas Jarry are scheduled to face each other in the round of 32 of the 2022 ATP Korea Open on Wednesday, September 28.
With the exception of a few losses, Casper Ruud‘s season has been one to look forward to. For a player who has been labeled as one-dimensional due to his preference for clay, he appears to have made strides on other surfaces as well. One example is his performance at the US Open, where he reached the final – his second major final of the season – and climbed to second in the ATP Rankings. From there, Ruud found time to compete in the Davis Cup, where he easily defeated India’s Prajnesh Gunneswaran before defeating Jack Sock in the Laver Cup to earn a point. Ruud will now face his first test in Korea, where he previously performed admirably.
After advancing from the qualifiers, Nicolas Jarry defeated lucky loser Ryan Peniston in the opening round to secure this matchup with Ruud. Jarry, who is also well-known for his clay-court skills, had little trouble in the qualifying rounds because he defeated both opponents in a single set. Jarry played British player Peniston, and his time on court to win the match was just one hour and 39 minutes. There were only four break points available for either player in the match, and all of them went to Peniston, which was remarkable. In the end, Jarry won the match and advanced to round two off the fourth match point of the second set tiebreaker.
Casper Ruud and Nicolas Jarry are scheduled to face each other in the round of 32 of the 2022 ATP Korea Open on Wednesday, September 28. The tournament is scheduled to begin on September 24 and end on October 2.
