The Italian has never lost to the Argentine, but did not get off to the ideal start, having to come back from a set down to eventually win 6-7(3) 6-2 6-4 to progress to the quarter-finals. The 23-year-old will face local Wild Card Coleman Wong after he shocked sixth Gabriel Diallo earlier in the days play. Andrey Rublev also needed to come back to win, as he overcame Wu Yibing, taking the match 3-6 6-2 6-1. The world number 16 ended last season in poor form, only winning two matches after his Round of 16 exit at the US Open. Rublev will play Nuno Borges in the quarter-finals, with the Portuguese 28-year-old seeded eighth in the tournament. (Production: Joseph Andrews)
