Cerundolo defeated Elmer Moller in straight sets in the second round as he began his fourth appearance in Santiago. The Argentine was a semi-finalist in last year’s edition, and with his strong start to the year, he will be confident of going all the way this week.
Cerundolo, the world number 19, has won eight of 11 matches. His form has gone up a notch at the Golden Swing, where he has been crowned champion in Buenos Aires.
Emilio Nava is having a strong week in Santiago and will fancy his chances of causing an upset. The American, yet to drop a set in the tournament, has won against sixth seed Matteo Berrettini and the qualifier Adolfo Daniel Vallejo.
