Coming out of the slump on the tour, he won five consecutive victories and won the Fonseca Challenger

As we all know, there is a series of tours that take place every year. At these tournaments, there will always be players who break through and win their first career tour title. Unfortunately, not all players are in good shape at all times. No, there was such a player some time ago, after making a career breakthrough on the tour, he fell into a slump in the blink of an eye. Thankfully, last week the player finally came out of his slump at the Challenger and won the title with a wave of five straight wins. So, who exactly is this player? In which Challenger did he win last week? Who did you beat on the way to the championship? Let the humble article take you to see it today.



That player is the Brazilian Fonseca! Last season, he landed a six-lap jump to claim his first career Tour victory, reach the semi-finals of his first Challenger Tournament, reach his first Challenger Final, win his first Challenger Tournament, win his first Masters Tournament and become the first South American to win the New Talent Finals. It is precisely because of this achievement that Fonseca has risen to almost 600 places in the world ranking.



Fonseca was not complacent in the face of his impressive record. Some time ago, he defeated four Argentine players at the ATP 250 Buenos Aires Open to win the first tour title of his career, becoming the youngest South American champion since the birth of the ATP Tour. All of a sudden, the praise came to his face, and Fonseca was a little addicted.



It was in this context that Fonseca was defeated in straight sets by the little-known Miller in the first round of the ATP 500 Rio. Not long ago, although he defeated the British player Fearnley in three sets, he was immediately sent a duck egg by the British brother Draper. This scene tells Fonseca that although he has made great progress, there is still a long way to go, and if he wants to achieve more, he must always keep a normal heart.



Fonseca traveled to the United States last week to compete in the ATP CH175 Challenger Challenger Phoenix. It is worth mentioning that this is the highest level of challenge, and the contestants are quite strong. Objectively speaking, it is not easy to get good results here. In the first round, against Russia's Kotov, who had reached the last 32 of a Grand Slam, Fonseca won quite easily, allowing his opponent to win only six games in two sets.



In the second round, facing the German veteran Struff, Fonseca fell into a bitter battle. In the end, he took over the match with an excellent serve in the deciding set, knocking off his opponent and being able to advance. After two straight wins, Fonseca's self-confidence has been restored to some extent. He then defeated France's Gaston and former Grand Slam runner-up Kei Nishikori of Japan to reach his third career Challenger final. In the final, Fonseca's opponent was the former Asian men's tennis brother, Kazakhstan's Bublik. In this match, Fonseca finally defeated his opponent and won the championship through two tie-breaks. So, after winning the Phoenix Challenger, how will Fonseca perform in the future? Let's stay tuned.



A lot of times, the world of tennis is really just a teahouse. In this teahouse, there are many, many tea customers who have been here for a long time, and some of them have become quite famous. However, there are always fledgling tea drinkers who come here and look forward to tasting the sweet tea with their own efforts. And the author is just a small scholar in the corner of this teahouse who tells the stories of these tea customers in obscurity. I hope my article can bring some fresh information to all fans. Whether it's compliments or criticisms, maybe it's just to be able to get me far. That's it for today, and it continues tomorrow.(Source: Tennis Home Author: Yixin Jushi)
