Nico is when you feel it eh!
Jarry since the season on earth in Europe: 3 matches 3 defeats. Not bad when you're world number 22, my guy!
And yes, we debated it quite a bit with Marcos, because Jarry is one of his favorite players, and we concluded that the Chilean had lost his spark a little this year. Except in Buenos Aires and Miami, the guy just does shit. Yet he is still as diligent, still clenches his fist and everything. But when it doesn't want it doesn't want it. His first 2 rounds in Buenos and Miami were HIGHly contested since he won them in the decisive tie-break, which allowed him to ride on this confidence afterwards. But there, he clearly needs confidence, and Rome is not really the most favorable for him in terms of conditions. I would rather lean towards Geneva ;). The thing is, he plays Arnaldi. The Italian was really on the verge of falling to the wayside against Mayot. Let's be honest: he's not at his best right now either. His matches are disjointed, he makes mistakes too quickly, he is forceful in his forehand attacks... It seems like he wants to take stock too quickly. Afterwards, his R1 passed, he won, and here he goes. It's never easy to play a huge tournament at home. He must have looked for the inner strength of a super sayan as usual, because his tennis was clearly not that. But big change here: he won't have to play the game as much as against Mayot, and that's rather good news! The number of attacking forehands he put in the net, mamma mia...
