The first round of the Chile Open 2024 was as exciting as enthusiasts would hope for it to be. Apart from witnessing several three-set thrillers, there were also a few upsets with some top-seeded players being knocked out of the competition. However, as the tournament proceeds to the second round, all eyes will be on the upcoming Nicolas Jarry vs Federico Coria clash.
Nicolas Jarry, who won the previous edition of the Chile Open, is coming off a shocking first-round loss in the Rio de Janeiro Open. In hopes of redeeming himself, Jarry would aim to defend his title at the Chile Open.
With the virtue of being the No.1 seed of the tournament, Jarry was given a bye in the Round of 32. However, his opponent – Federico Coria – for the upcoming Round of 16 clash, had to overcome Alex Molcan as his first match of the tournament.
The two South American players will face off at the Estadio San Carlos de Apoquindo, not before 5 PM EST. As the temperature is expected to be 30 Degrees Celsius with no chance of rainfall, tennis fans in Chile can expect an entertaining contest. The SportsRush’s Nicolas Jarry vs Federico Coria prediction is in favor of the Chilean star to win the match.
