Jerome Kym Leads Switzerland in Davis Cup Action
Jerome Kym Pushes Switzerland Forward in Davis Cup
Ten years after their first Davis Cup victory, Switzerland's men's team is fighting this weekend to stay among the elite of global tennis. In Bienne, Severin Lüthi's squad is currently leading 1-0 in their playoff against Peru following Jerome Kym's impressive victory. With a sparse crowd of approximately 700 in attendance at the Swiss Tennis Arena, which accommodates 2500, the young Kym (21 years, ATP 151), stepping up as the No. 1 for the Swiss selection for the first time, showed remarkable composure to secure the opening point for his country. The Argovian player triumphed with a score of 6-1, 6-4 in just 1 hour and 07 minutes against Ignacio Buse (ranked 212). Following Kym, Marc-Andrea Hüsler (ranked 171) will attempt to extend the lead against Juan Pablo Varillas (ranked 179).
