World No. 98 Tomas Martin Etcheverry will take on Joao Fonseca in the first round of the Argentina Open.
Etcheverry is working towards finding his best game on the main tour. Apart from semifinal runs in Barcelona and Houston, he also reached the finals in Lyon, where he lost to Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard.
The 25-year-old will enter Buenos Aires after a second-round exit in the Australian Open. He edged past Flavio Cobolli in the first round, but couldn't solve the riddle against Marcos Giron. The American defeated him in five sets, 7-5, 3-6, 7-5, 3-6, 6-4.

Joao Fonseca, meanwhile, has played most of his tennis on the ATP Challenger circuit so far. He was the last man standing at the ATP Next Gen Finals last year, his best result on tour.
The Brazilian will enter Buenos Aires after a second-round exit in the Australian Open. He started his campaign with a hard-fought win over Andrey Rublev but couldn't tip the scales in his favor against Lorenzo Sonego. The Italian defeated Fonseca in five sets, 6-7(6), 6-3, 6-1, 3-6, 6-3.

Etcheverry is a popular name in South American tennis. The Argentine came super close to winning a title last year and will be expected to do well in 2025. He's known for his intricate footwork on the court and sharp anticipation skills.
Fonseca, on the other hand, stunned Andrey Rublev in the first round of the Australian Open last month. The youngster made a huge statement on his Grand Slam debut and will be one to watch out for in the next few months. He likes to play an aggressive brand of tennis and possesses the composure to play at a high level.
Etcheverry will surely be one of the favorites to win the Argentina Open. He will face competition from the likes of Alexander Zverev and Holger Rune, who are the top two seeds at the event. Considering their experience on the main tour, the Argentine should be able to begin his campaign with a win.
Pick: Tomas Martin Etcheverry to win straight sets.
