The Argentine tennis player Sebastian Baez will face the Croatian Borna Coric today in the semifinals of the ATP 250 in Winston Salem, which already has a finalist defined, the Czech Jiri Lehecka.
The Argentine will face Croatian Borna Coric (29) in the semifinals, who was the executioner of Cerúndolo (100) by winning that quarterfinal duel 6-3, 6-1 in one hour and 21 minutes.
Báez’s rival in a hypothetical final would be the Czech Jiri Lehecka (35), who already has his ticket for the title match since the other semifinalist, the American Sebastian Korda (33), withdrew from the tournament due to injury.
Báez, 22, won two tournaments on clay this year, the Córdoba Open and Kitzbuhel, in Austria, and in Winston Salem he will play the first semifinal of his career on a hard surface, in a clear sign of his evolution.
The Winston Salem ATP 250 will distribute prizes for $850,680 and the Czech Lehecka (35) was crowned finalist, who advanced without playing due to the non-presentation in the semifinals of the American Sebastián Korda (33).
The Argentine tennis players won four titles in ATP tournaments this year: the two mentioned by Báez, plus those of Francisco Cerúndolo in Eastbourne (England) and Pedro Cachín in Gstaad (Switzerland).
