Argentinian tennis player Sebastián Báez (34th) defeated Peruvian Ignacio Buse (96th) in the match held at Guillermo Vilas Stadium in the Buenos Aires Lawn Tennis Club, and advanced to the quarterfinals of the Argentina Open. According to the Argentine News Agency, his victory came with a score of 6-4 and 6-3 after 1 hour and 24 minutes of play. With this win, the player who was the runner-up at the ATP 250 in Auckland in January will face a tough duel in the third round. He will have to face the winner between his compatriots Camilo Ugo Carabelli (47th) and Mariano Navone (73rd) for a place in the semifinals. Sebastián Báez maintains his good level after a preseason that he was able to go through without physical problems and qualified for the quarterfinals of the ATP 250 in Buenos Aires, known as the Argentina Open. The Argentine had to face the Peruvian Ignacio Buse, who has had a great rise in the ATP ranking at 21 years old and who had a good match, although Báez was superior and needed only one break to take the first set on his second set point. Starting the second set, there were two consecutive breaks between the third and fifth games, for the player born in San Martín to get the decisive break in the ninth game, sealing the victory on his only match point. On an important South American tour for him and rebuilding his confidence with a great start to the year, 'Seba' Báez has already surpassed his participation in last year's Argentina Open, where he had reached the second round, and is in 33rd place in the live ATP ranking.
