Jerome Kym

MTO

medical time-out (right shoulder)

Kym came through in two tiebreaks against Francesco Passaro, outgunning and overpowering the Italian from the baseline in Gstaad (1:55 hr). The Swiss wildcard served big, dominated the forehand-to-forehand rallies, and looked the more intense player throughout. Backed by strong home support, Kym showed no signs of discomfort after taking an MTO for a right shoulder issue at 3-2* in the second set. Passaro had six break point chances but couldn’t take any of them, and was well beaten despite the tight looking scoreline, winning 13 points fewer overall. Commentary: "Passaro was going for broke on return, which wasn’t the best strategy." Kym 28w 36ue; Passaro 18w 30ue. Kym 7/6 7/6.

Filip Misolic

MTO

medical time-out (right thigh)

Misolic rallied from a set and 5-2 down to take out defending champion Nuno Borges in three sets (1:59 hr). The Austrian, who took a MTO at the end of the first set for a right knee/thigh issue, was forced to adopt a more aggressive gamestyle than usual—and it paid off. Borges, who hadn’t faced a break point until serving for the match, failed to convert three match points and was punished for backing off with his shots. Matched as low as 1.01 on Betfair, the Portuguese looked increasingly passive as the match slipped away. Commentary: "An epic turnaround. Insane win for Misolic after he was lacking explosiveness yesterday." Misolic 35w 34ue; Borges 22w 38ue. Misolic 3/6 7/6 6/3.
