Casper Ruud gets his revenge! The world No. 4 climbed to the quarter-finals of Roland-Garros thanks to his success 7-6 (7/3) 7-5 7-5 ahead of Nicolas Jarry (ATP 45), his “executioner” 10 days earlier in Geneva.
In this duel between the last 2 winners of the Geneva Open, the Norwegian forced the decision thanks to his ability to make the Chilean play too much. Guilty of 67 unforced errors once morest 40 winning shots, Nicolas Jarry has, in fact, accused too much waste to beat the last year’s finalist. His 3 of 17 on break points also weighed.
“It was 3 very, very difficult sets… How long would it have been if we had gone to the 5th set?”, wondered the 24-year-old Norwegian, while specifying that he was “ready if it had been necessary to play more”. Ruud fought 3h22 to take the measure of the Chilean, winner of the Geneva Open 10 days ago.
Casper Ruud will meet the winner of the match between Holger Rune (ATP 6) and Francisco Cerundolo (ATP 23) on Wednesday. Facing the Dane or the Argentinian, the Norwegian will evolve in his usual sector, the one that allows him over the minutes to thwart the opponent.
