Congratulations to Joao, a true exterminator of Argentine tennis players this week.
I didn't think that after the efforts of the last few days today he would have the strength to overcome the Cerundolo obstacle.
However, all things considered, this final was his easiest victory since the victory against Etcheverry.

New best ranking at 68.

But above all he becomes one of the youngest tennis players to win an ATP tournament in this millennium.

As I said some time ago, this year Fonseca already seems to have the level to aspire to enter the top 20.
And now let's see what he will be able to do in his Rio, even if a possible early elimination in this case would be completely physiological.

The world of tennis is increasingly observing a new potential star in its firmament.
And his very rock style of play will certainly bring further interest to future tennis leaders.
 
Doesn't feel so absurd right now I'll be honest
Classic comment from someone who tries to extrapolate only part of a comment to bring grist to their mill with the aim of being pleased.

Genius, we're talking about a 250, he didn't win a slam.
In Brazil the expectations towards him are as if he were already ready to win important titles.
For this reason I invited calm, and to let him grow in peace in this phase of development.

On the talent and potential of Fonseca, let alone if someone like myself who for weeks has considered him the possible future alter ego of Sinneraz, has to justify himself.
Fonseca is a crazy talent, but in this phase of his development he should be left free to have the normal ups and downs of a young player, rather than immediately demanding the moon from him.

No worries. Sinner would beat Fonseca easily if they played next week.
Although I would not be so sure about that if they played each other after Sinner’s 3-month suspension is over.
 
However, it is my fault for not understanding that alluding to the unjustified hype of the moment in a forum where there are several users who commented on Shapovalov's triumph in Dallas as if he had filled out the CYGS is a discussion that should not be applied.

Also because they will be the same ones who, following Fonseca's first defeat after this tournament, will start talking about bluffing.
Balance unknown.
 
Sinner fans literally in ruins because they know at the end of the day no one gives a damn about his records. It'll be a nice graphic on sports telecast but everyone will still consider Alcaraz and Fonseca better in casual conversation.

The moment Fonseca takes over he'll be a distant memory, just another club-level pusher like a slightly better version of Ruud.

OK

Yah man, kid is hopefully en route to a stellar career, hope he stays well. I think - from the ATP article- your point 3 may need revision, because Nishikori, Rafa and Carlitos were younger winners this century.


Regardless, its a superb achievement.

You're right, stand corrected (amended post).
 
Pretty tough draw for a 250. Alexander Zverev leads the field, with Holger Rune and Lorenzo Musetti also making the trip down to Buenos Aires.

Local favorites include Sebastian Baez and the Cerundolo brothers. Diego 'El Peque' Schwartzman comes out of retirement to take on Nicolas Jarry.

Should be fun!
Congratulations to those who voted for Brazil's gem, Joao "Missil" Fonseca.

Fonseca is still in the honeymoon phase. Let's see what happens when someone (or someone's coach) figures out how to play against him, and then all the other quality players on tour start adopting that same strategy.
Yes, which is why I said I hope he keeps developing. You have to admit, though, that winning that tournament was a great step for the teenager.
