Francisco Cerúndolo demonstrated his great level at the IEB+ Argentina Open 2025 by defeating the Spaniard Pedro Martínez 6-2 and 6-4, securing his place in the final of the tournament. The Argentine, who had previously surprised by eliminating the favorite Alexander Zverev, will face the young Brazilian Joao Fonseca in the final.
Cerúndolo played decisively, standing out for his power from the back of the court and dominating with his forehand, his most lethal shot. In the final, he will meet Fonseca, a player only 18 years old who managed to defeat Laslo Djere to reach the final of this ATP 250.
Fonseca, with a key victory over Djere, becomes the second youngest finalist in the tournament's history, demonstrating his talent and promising an exciting match. The Brazilian has been responsible for bringing Brazil back to the Argentina Open final after 24 years.
