Albert Ramos Viñolas vs Francisco Cerundolo Preview

Albert Ramos-Vinolas

Francisco Cerundolo will be appearing in his first ATP Tour semi-final. The qualifier rallied past sixth seed Pablo Andujar 1-6, 6-3, 6-2 to reach the last four at the Argentina Open.

“I think it’s been two amazing weeks for me, for my brother, for my family, for Argentine tennis players and fans. I think what my brother did last week was unreal,” Cerundolo told ATPTour.com. “It inspired me and many other players that are coming from lower rankings that we have the level to play these type of matches.”

Including qualifying, this was Cerundolo’s sixth win of the week. The World No. 137 has upset third seed Benoit Paire and now four-time ATP Tour titlist Andujar in the main draw. But the 22-year-old almost didn’t make it into the main draw at all. He needed three sets in two of his three qualifying matches.

Albert Ramos-Vinolas ended the run of the Indian player Sumit Nagal in the QFs and will be coming into this match with some confidence.The fifth seed came from a set down to beat the Indian qualifier 4-6, 6-2, 7-5 in two hours and 25 minutes on Friday night at the ATP 250 clay-court tournament in Buenos Aires.
