Of the three ATP 250 events this week, the Argentine Open was the least interesting. Zverev, the world's No. 2 German star, went all the way to South America to compete, isn't it a proper championship!
However, the course of the game in Buenos Aires this week has caught the attention of the fans.
First of all, it's rare for two Brazilians to advance to the quarterfinals at the same time.
First up is the 18-year-oldFonseca beat Argentina's native Navone 3-6, 6-4, 7-5。 As a new generation of youngsters who have not yet established themselves on the tour, they staged a thrilling comeback in front of Argentine fans.
Fonseca came back from a second set after losing the first set. In the deciding set, Navone grabbed two match points first, but did not win the match with the blessing of the audience, and was defeated by Fonseca. Fonseca advanced to the semi-finals.

The last quarter-final is more exciting.No. 1 seed Zverev takes on No. 5 seed Cerundolo.The Cerundolo brothers compete together in this homegrown event. In the second round, F. Cerundolo defeated J. Cerundolo and advanced to the quarterfinals in multiple rounds.
Against Zverev, what can give Argentine fans the greatest hope is that in the R16 of last year's Madrid Masters, Serendolo won Zverev. It was the only time the two met before the game.
In the first set, Zverev won the first set 6-3. In the second set, Zverev broke first. I thought Zverev would win the match and have a chance to tie the head-to-head record. Who would have thought that the next game would be a big surprise!
Serundolo broke Zverev's serve twice in a row to tie the score at 6-3.
The enthusiasm of the crowd was ignited by their players......
In the third set, Zverev couldn't play at all. It also entered the state of weak return and afterburner mistakes. He frequently missed break points in his own service game, and he couldn't complete the break at the opponent's break point. Zverev was in a state of helplessness. Asking for help from the old father was to no avail.
That's it, this game is heart-wrenching.
