In a surprising turn of events at the Argentina Open, Federico Coria, ranked No. 106, defeated world No. 20 Cameron Norrie in the round of 16. Coria opened the match with a strong performance, winning the first set 6-2. Norrie fought back in the second set, claiming it 6-4. However, Coria secured his victory by taking the third set 6-3. This win marks Coria's most significant career victory, a moment he emotionally described as 'I can't believe it... I think it's my best victory in my career, here in front of my people', especially meaningful as it occurred in front of his home crowd in Buenos Aires. The victory is noted as the biggest win by a Coria in Buenos Aires since his brother Guillermo's success in 2004.
