The Argentinian Francisco Cerúndolo overcame qualifying and entered the main draw of ATP 250 in Adelaide, which will begin on Monday night (Argentine time).
For the first time in his sporting career, the 23-year-old tennis player, and located in position 127 of the ATP world rankings, will play his first main draw at the ATP level in a fast court tournament. He did it by defeating Colombian Daniel Galán in a very tight duel after more than two hours of play and he finished 7-6 (3) and 7-6 (5).
“Come on !! To the main draw! ”He tweeted shortly after his victory. In the first wheel he will face the Italian Gianluca Mager (62 °).
Francisco Cerúndolo was a finalist for the Open Buenos Aires 2021 last February, when he fell in straight sets to Diego Schwartzman.
The youngest of the Cerúndolo, Juan Manuel (90 ° and 20 years), entered the main draw directly and will make his debut against local Alex Bolt (137 °).
In the event of victory in the opening round, Juan Manuel Cerúndolo will face the top seed in the second round, Frenchman Gael Monfils (21 °).
