Tsitsi way above?
Indeed the Greek seems to be the favorite for the final victory in Rome but we have to overcome the Jarry obstacle, a big one!
Jarry at 4.47 I immediately wondered why it was so high. I mean ok Tsitsi is monstrous on earth, has just beaten De Minaur but Jarry is a profile he doesn't like to face. The Chilean leads 3/2 in confrontations in addition, so why is he so high and is this normal? With his enormous quality of service, his lumberjack strikes and his constant aggressiveness he has the game to take Stefanos out of his comfort zone, pressing his backhand with one hand. The Greek loves to turn around his backhand to dictate with his forehand, against Jarry there is the risk of taking a long flat line backhand which punishes him if his forehand is not perfect. Once the exchange is neutral it is often Tsitsi who will have the last word but we still have to get that far. Muller was disappointed after his defeat because he had the feeling of not having been able to play his game against Jarry, of not having had the necessary time to do things, and that was the whole problem against the Chilean. He serves the steel and comes to send you warheads on the first hits of the racket, not easy to adjust. Now, is it the right time for Jarry to take out Tsitsi, the times he beat him he was in the thick of it and Tsitsi was in the tough, this time the roles are reversed. Jarry hasn't won much lately, struggles in R1 then R2 against the locals and finally has a benchmark match but "only" against Muller. Either we see a guy who is struggling with his race against not great guys and he's going to take a hit against one of the best earthlings in the world, or we see an enormous resilience which will be rewarded sooner or later and in this case he will be able to go and hook Tsitsi thanks to his mentality and his game.
