The world number 36 from Buenos Aires lost to American Fritz 6-4, 6-1 and did not advance to the Canadian tournament.
The Argentinian Mariano Navone failed to advance this Wednesday in his Montreal Masters 1000 debut, where fell 6-4 and 6-1 against American Taylor Fritz, ninth favorite in the Canadian tournament that distributes nearly seven million dollars in prizes.
Born on July 9, Buenos Aires province, said goodbye in just one hour and 14 minutes of playing against the North American ranked 13th in the world ranking. His last challenge was at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, where after winning his debut against Portuguese Nuno Borges (43), he was eliminated in the 16th round against Italian Lorenzo Mussetti (16).
The other Argentine living in the tournament, Tomás Echeverry (38), will play this Thursday in the round of 16 against Russian Andrey Rublev, fifth seed and eighth in the rankings. In the first round, he knocked out Chilean Nicolás Jarry (24).
Navone’s bad streak on hard surfaces
This Wednesday marks the Argentine’s debut in an ATP main draw on this surface, which has so far been difficult for him: He could not celebrate him in his seven performances, which includes, for example, the qualifiers for the US Open 2023 and Australia 2024 and the challenger Temuco 2022. Within the top 50, the Italian Luciano Darderi (32) shares the same disappointment, although there are three game played.
