There is a very special connection Fran Cerúndolo has with the Miami Open, which is once again being demonstrated on the courts of the second Masters 1000 of the season. The Argentine has made it to the round of 16 after defeating one of the big threats, a Tommy Paul who surely will not be satisfied with his March campaign. This is the third consecutive loss he suffers against the Argentine (6-2, 7-6), the last before getting his clay socks dirty, a moment of the calendar where he becomes less of a specialist. On the other hand, Fran will enjoy a couple more days in Florida, where a beautiful match against Casper Ruud awaits him.
