The Nicolas Jarry vs Corentin Moutet clash will take place on the outdoor red clay courts of Santiago, Chile. The match will start at around 7:20 pm local time (5.20 PM ET) on Friday, March 1 at COURT JAMIE FILLOL.
Nicolas Jarry won his first ATP title at the 2019 Swedish Open, where he beat Juan Ignacio Londero 7-6 (9-7), 6-4. Jarry is also the defending Chile Open champion. He beat Tomas Martin Etcheverry 6-7 (5-7), 7-6 (7-5), 6-2 in the 2023 final to win the title. He also won the 2023 Geneva Open that year, beating Grigor Dimitrov 7-6 (7-1), 6-1.
Besides his 3 ATP title wins, Jarry recently reached the final of the 2024 Argentina Open. He lost the final to Facundo Diaz Acosta, but defeated big names like Carlos Alcaraz and Stan Wawrinka on the road to the final. He will be desperate to finish another ATP event on a high.
Corentin Moutet has yet to win any ATP title in his career, but the Frenchman reached the final of the 2020 Qatar ExxonMobil Open, where he lost to World No.5 Andrey Rublev. He also reached the fourth round of the US Open 2022 but hasn’t quite shone apart from that.
Off late, Moutet hasn’t been quite his best. Although he won the Challenger title at the 2023 HPP Open, beating Sumit Nagal in the final, Moutet has been struggling in the 2024 ATP season. At the Rio Open, he lost in the Round of 32, and at the Argentina Open and the Cordoba Open, he couldn’t clear the qualifiers. However, he will look to make this Chile Open quarter-final count.
Corentin Moutet ranks 51st in the world, whereas Jarry is 22nd in the ATP rankings. With all things considered, The SportsRush predicts Nicolas Jarry to win the match between him and Corentin Moutet.
