Nicolás Jarry says goodbye to Gstaad in the quarter-finals and the Top 100 will have to wait

The national tennis player struggled, but ended up losing to Albert Ramos Viñolas by partials 6-7(4), 6-4 and 6-7(8). Now he will continue his journey through Europe to Kitzbühel, where he could finally secure his presence among the top 100 on the planet.

The Chilean’s journey to Gstaad ended in the quarter-finals. Nicolás Jarry (118th) failed to beat the Spaniard Albert Ramos Viñolas (40th) and fell by partial 6-7(4), 6-4 and 6-7(8) only one step away from the top ten.

It was a dramatic match, where the Chilean once again wreaked havoc with his serve, greatly improved by the conditions in the Swiss city. Gstaad is located at more than 1000 meters above sea level , embedded between the mountains of the Alps, being even a place where skiing is practiced in winter. This altitude is perfect for Jarry’s service, which on this occasion hit 21 aces.

But Ramos Viñolas is a player who fights to the end. The Spaniard is a clay-court specialist and once he managed to put Nicolás’ serve into play, the points turned into long rallies that bothered the national.

It was this duality of the games, which did not allow the game to clearly opt for an extreme. Both players took care of their serves at all times, but Jarry had the possibility of being able to end the match much earlier. In total, he had 12 break chances, but could only take advantage of two.

This is what you need to learn to improve. Obviously, his game makes it easy to fail in those situations, but by the time he finds himself, he also needs to know how to take that step forward and be able to make those options come true.

So finally the duel was defined in a tie-break, as we have seen so many times with the former 38 in the world. But just like in the first set, he couldn’t take the tiebreaker. A definition that stretched to 10-8 and finally said that Ramos Viñolas will be the rival of Casper Ruud (5th) in the semi-finals. jerry he will continue his European journey at the ATP 250 in Kitzbühel.
