What Time Will Elias Ymer Play Against Nicolas Jarry?
Ymer and Jarry are on the Day 2 Schedule at Bnp Paribas Nordic Open 2024 on Tuesday 15 October 2024. Lets breakdown the career, past stats and recent form of these players and predict who will get the victory.
Who Will Win In This Head-To-Head?
Elias Ymer from Sweden will be facing Nicolas Jarry from Chile in their upcoming match. Jarry currently leads the head-to-head record 1-0, with their previous encounter taking place in the 23 Davis Cup Group Stage on a hard court in Italy. Jarry won that match convincingly with a scoreline of 6-2, 6-4.
Now, let’s take a closer look at both players.
Elias Ymer, aged 28, is currently ranked as World No. 252. However, he has previously reached a career-high ranking of No. 105 in 2018. Ymer’s performance in 2024 has been somewhat inconsistent, with a win-loss record of 3-4, and he has been eliminated in the first round of three tournaments. In terms of his past performances, Ymer reached the quarter-finals of the Stockholm tournament in 2023. Notably, in 2015, he made history as a teenager by becoming only the second man on record to qualify for all four Grand Slam events in a calendar year, a feat previously achieved by Dancevic in 2011. In terms of achievements, Ymer won the 2016 Stockholm doubles title in his team debut with his brother Mikael Ymer. He achieved this remarkable feat while being ranked as a wildcard at 954th position. Ymer’s highest ranking in the junior rankings was No. 5, and he reached the final of the 2012 Orange Bowl.
Ymer has a notable presence in the Stockholm main draw, as this will be his ninth appearance, which is the second-most among the 2024 field, with Dimitrov leading with ten appearances. Ymer will be aiming for his first tour-level win outside of Davis Cup matches since reaching the quarter-finals in Stockholm last year. Additionally, his biggest win by ranking was against No. 15 Karatsev in the 2022 Pune second round. However, Ymer’s record against top 50 players is not very encouraging, with only four wins out of 34 matches.
On the other side, we have Nicolas Jarry, aged 29, who currently holds a World No. 34 ranking. Jarry’s career-high ranking was No. 16, achieved in May 2024. He had an impressive run in that year, becoming the first Chilean since F. Gonzalez in 2007 to reach an ATP Masters 1000 final in Rome. Previously, in 2023, Jarry won his second ATP Tour title in his hometown of Santiago, overcoming deficits in three out of five matches. He also defeated double defending champion Ruud in the quarter-finals and 2019 champion Zverev in the semi-finals on his way to winning his third title in Geneva. In 2019, Jarry joined his fellow countryman Garin as a first-time ATP Tour champion by winning the Bastad title without dropping a set. Notably, he also had a significant victory against No. 3 A. Zverev in the 2019 Barcelona second round, where he saved a match point. However, in the final of the Geneva tournament, he squandered two match points against A. Zverev.
Jarry also had success in the junior rankings, reaching a career-high of No. 8. He reached the boys’ doubles final at the 2013 Roland Garros alongside his compatriot Garin. Interestingly, Jarry has strong sporting lineage, as his parents, Allan and Cecilia, were former professional volleyball players, while his grandfather Jaime Fillol, great-uncle Alvaro Fillol, and uncle Martin Rodriguez were former ATP players.
In terms of Jarry’s performance in Swedish ATP Tour events, he has been unbeaten, with a perfect record of 5-0. This includes his first title win in Bastad in 2019 without losing a set. However, since reaching his first ATP Masters 1000 final in Rome in May, Jarry’s record has been less impressive, with only one win out of nine matches (against No. 127 Klein in Chengdu second round).
In summary, Ymer and Jarry are about to face each other in their second match, with Jarry leading the head-to-head record. Both players have achieved notable milestones in their careers, and Jarry has had recent success in ATP Tour events. Ymer will be aiming for his first tour-level win outside of Davis Cup matches and his biggest win by ranking, while Jarry looks to regain his form after a less successful recent run.
