Ruud Stretched by Jarry
While Ruud has shown tremendous improvement on a hard court surface having reached the final at the US Open as well, he did take some time in finding his footing in his opening match here in Seoul.
Coming into the second round after a bye in the previous round, Ruud was stretched to three sets by Nicolas Jarry before he could come through. Ruud won 6-2, 3-6, 6-3 in a match lasting an hour and 43 minutes against the 111th-ranked Jarry.
Enduring 13 aces, Ruud’s only issue on serve came in the fourth game of the second set when he faced his only break-point and was broken. Unfortunately for Ruud he failed to take advantage of the two break-points he had in the set and conceded the equaliser.
In the decider, the Norwegian number one broke Jarry in the sixth game before wrapping up the encounter off his fourth match-point.

Nishioka Showing Good Signs
After having taken down Dan Evans in the first round of the competition in straight sets, a confident Nishioka did not waste too much time against Taro Daniel in the second.
Coming into the match as a 3/5 favourite, Nishioka carved out a 6-2, 6-4 victory over Daniel in an hour and 22 minutes to reach his third ATP quarterfinal of the season.
A finalist at the Washington Open, Nishioka had relied on his strong first serves to avoid conceding any break-points. At the same he earned five of them, breaking his opponent on three occasions to clinch the win.
What needs to be seen is if Nishoka can invoke his from Washington where he had gotten the better of Jenson Brooksby, Alex de Minaur, Karen Khachanov, Dan Ecans and Andrey Rublev to make the final.
Ruud v Nishioka Prediction and Tip
Ruud’s the favourite but will be wary of Nishioka’s form when he gets on to a roll. Expect Nishioka to win at least a set.
Tip: Nishioka to win a set – Yes: 8/11 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
