Movistar Chile Open Preview – Betting picks
All eyes will be on Chile’s Nicolas Jarry as he looks to defend his Movistar Chile Open 2023 singles title on home soil. Jarry stunned the tennis world last year when the then-world number 89 captured the trophy in front of a raucous home crowd at the Estadio San Carlos de Apoquindo in Santiago.
Now ranked just inside the top 30, Jarry will face immense pressure to repeat as champion. The 28-year-old is the favorite to take the win. However, defending a title is never easy. Jarry will have to give his best to fend off a host of opponents eager to snatch the trophy.
The top seeds in this year’s tournament are strong contenders to reach the bottom of the draw. We expect players like Sebastian Baez, Arthur Fils, and Yannick Hanfmann to play to their rankings and reach the quarterfinals or semifinals. Their talent, experience, and current form make them tough to beat in the early rounds.
