Jérôme Kym

He's ready for the tour level.

You saw when he qualified, obviously, into a main draw, losing three sets to Jerome Kim earlier this summer.

He's ready.

His game is ready.

Medvedev won 7-6 in the third.

And it ended with Jerome Kim taking out Ben Shelton 7-6 in the third.

And in between that, there were a lot of 7-6 in the third matches.

Bashiro takes out Hodor 7-6 in the third.

So next week in Paris is going to be very interesting.

But now let's focus on the last match that I saw.

And I left at 5-2-15 Love Kim in the third set because I thought this match was over.

I had to go to Trader Joe's because I was worried it was going to close.

Looking at this card.

I think the big thing for this matchup is the form obviously goes to Jerome Kim at the moment.

Even if he is off a loss, Ranger Niche...

Two and five.

He hasn't played since September 19th, so injury also a concern, Steve.

That's a long layoff for rendered niche.

But man, Jerome Kim donates service games.

And that's just something you can't do against a big serving Frenchman.

He's beaten Griekspoor here as well.

But if you're not familiar with Stricker, it's probably because his career has been... hampered by constant injuries he's never looked the fittest to me and he's always seems to be always having a problem with one part of his body or the other like a lot of the young Swiss players Jerome Kim and Raidi all of them have suffered a lot with injuries in recent times Jerome Kim was another one I looked at actually against Rinderknecht but he actually ended up being favourite so I didn't do that but like Kim He's been playing at the Rowan Challenger indoors.

He actually withdrew against Kim Stricker in the quarterfinals there due to an ankle injury.

But he held serve in those two matches.
