A spot in the next round is at stake on Saturday, when Jerome Kym goes up against Zsombor Piros in the Iasi semifinal. Zsombor Piros has won 8 in a row and 8 of the last 10 overall. Jerome Kym is rolling — 3 straight wins, 8 of 10 in recent play.
There is no history here: this is their first tour-level meeting.
Zsombor Piros is clearly higher-rated on clay — our number puts Piros around 53%. Kym comes in off a compressed schedule; Piros comes in off a compressed schedule. A tiebreak or two would surprise nobody, with Piros fractionally more likely to land the big points.
