Tennis China Open Beijing: A. Zverev vs. N. Jarry – live ticker – quarterfinals – 2023

08:12

More delay

In fact, the current match is going into the third set because Medvedev threw away his service with four double faults – three of them in a row – and Humbert subsequently didn’t allow himself to be denied the equalizer of the set. Accordingly, we have to be patient a little longer and expect that it will probably start around 9:00 a.m. CEST.

Will be later

Ugo Humbert and Daniil Medvedev are currently on the Diamond Court. The second movement is currently entering the decisive phase. It is not yet clear whether the second seeded Russian will make it through smoothly. His French rival is still resisting. So the start of our match will be delayed.

Zverev in Peking

Zverev is in the main draw at this event for the fifth time since 2016, after finishing in the first qualifying round a year earlier. In 2017 and 2019, the Hamburger reached the semi-finals. Since then, the tournament has not taken place due to pandemic reasons and was only brought back to life this year. The 8th seeded German had always lost the first set in the tie-break in his previous matches, but then defeated Diego Schwartzman and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina with some certainty. After the night shift against the last-mentioned Spaniard, the right-hander at least had a day off.

Jarry in China

Jarry achieved his best Masters result on Chinese soil. That was also a round of 16 in Shanghai 2018. The Chilean is taking part in Beijing for the first time and started with a surprising two-set win against 4th seed Stefanos Tsitsipas on Friday. Then it was against the unseeded Italian Matteo Arnaldi over the full distance. After being down a set and having two tie-breaks, Jarry, who was also unseeded, made it to the quarter-finals.

Jarry

Jarry is a 27-year-old Chilean who has been listed as a professional since 2014 and who recently reached his highest ranking position as number 22 in the world. The right-hander is currently 23. On the ATP tour, Jarry has reached five finals – all in 250s – and won three of them, starting in 2019 in Båstad, Sweden. After an almost four-year dry spell, he made it into two finals again this season and won in his hometown of Santiago de Chile as well as in Geneva. On the big stage, the clay court specialist has a round of 16 at the French Open as his best major result.
