The Spanish tennis player Pedro Martinez eliminated the Chilean on Monday Cristian Garinby 7-6 (0) and 6-4, and advanced to the second round of the Rio de Janeiro Open, which is held at the Brazilian Jockey Club in the capital of Rio de Janeiro. Martínez will face off in the next phase with the winner of the duel between the Italian Lorenzo Musetti, third seeded in the tournament, and the Chilean Nicolás Jarry, scheduled to be played tonight.
For his part, the Argentine Facundo Bagnis retired when he lost against the serbian Laslo Djere by 6-2 and 3-2while the Bolivian Hugo Dellien ran over the Portuguese joao sousa with a crushing 6-0 and 6-2.
the brazilian tennis player Thiago Monteiro asserted his status as a local idol and beat the Austrian on Monday Dominic Thiemin a duel of almost three hours that was only resolved in the tiebreak of the third set (6-1, 3-6 and 7-6 (2)). The number 83 in the world came out emboldened on the clay of the Guga Kuerten court and endorsed his rival a 6-1 first, thanks in part to the unconditional support of the public of the Brazilian Jockey Club. The champion of the 2020 United States Open and 2017 Rio Open reacted in time in the second set and led the match to a very even tiebreaker set, with both players supported by their forehands. The tie was decided in the tiebreak in favor of the first Brazilian racket on the circuit, which asserted his physique against the Austrian, who since he injured his right wrist in 2021 has not returned to recover his best level. Monteiro will face the winner of the duel between the British Cameron Norrie, second seeded in the tournament, and the Argentine Juan Manuel Cerúndolo, scheduled for this Tuesday, in the second round.
This Tuesday the Spanish Carlos Alcaraz, current number 2 in the ATP rankings and who has just won in Buenos Aires, the British Cameron Norrie and the Argentine Diego Schwartzman, among others, will enter the scene.
