Argentina Open: (Q) Laslo Djere vs. Joao FonsecaFonseca’s meteoric rise is taking him larger and better at seemingly each stage of the sport–whether or not it’s the NextGen, an ATP 250, or a Grand Slam. The 18-year-old Brazilian is 16-2 in his final 18 matches, a stretch that features a title on the 2024 NextGen ATP Finals, an upset of Andrey Rublev on the Autralian Open, and victories this week in Buenos Aires over Tomas Martin Etcheverry, Federico Coria, and Mariano Navone. The world No. 99 beat Navone in an particularly epic contest on Friday afternoon, getting back from 3-5, 15-40 down within the third set to triumph 3-6, 6-4, 7-5 after two hours and 54 minutes.
