The wait for the possible qualification of four more Argentine tennis players for the Miami Open has come to an end with the draw of the main draw by the ATP. Francisco Cerundolo (24th) is the highest-ranked Argentine and one of the 32 seeds who will skip the first round.
In the first round, Federico Gómez was unable to obtain favorable results and was defeated by Australian James Duckworth (95th) with a score of 7-5 and 7-5. On the other hand, the Argentines who advanced to the next round are Ugo Carabelli, Francisco Comesaña, Thiago Tirante, and Marco Trungelliti.
One of the highlights was Ugo Carabelli's victory over Mitchell Krueger, thus qualifying for the final instance prior to the main draw of the ATP Masters 1000 tournament in Miami. Carabelli fought for nearly two hours to win 6-2, 6-3, and 6-3, demonstrating his good form.
Francisco Comesaña also achieved a victory by defeating Michael Mmoh with a score of 6-3 and 6-4. Meanwhile, Thiago Tirante defeated Dusan Lajovic 6-4 and 6-3, while Marco Trungelliti had to play a three-set match to overcome Alexander Ritschard.
These Argentine tennis players will continue to compete in the Miami Open, facing high-level players such as Alexander Zverev, Novak Djokovic, Taylor Fritz, among others. Camilo Ugo Carabelli stands out as one of the Argentines experiencing a great moment in his career, being just one match away from playing his first Masters 1000.
