Ruud Ends Jarry's Streak and Reaches Quarterfinals at Roland Garros

Norwegian tennis player Casper Ruud advanced to the quarterfinals of the French Open today, Monday, after ending the resistance of Chilean Nicolas Jarry with a victory of 7-5, 7-5, 7-5. Ruud stated: "If we had played five sets, I don't know how long we would have played. I thank my support team who pushed me hard in training; I was very ready physically."

Despite a very tight match lasting 3 hours and 20 minutes in 3 sets, the world number 4 Ruud put an end to Jarry's 7 consecutive victories. He reaches this stage in a Grand Slam for the third time in his career, having been a finalist twice.
