Say no more: Argentine hopes for a singles title at Roland Garros are over

Argentine hopes for a singles title at Roland Garros are over. Juan Manuel Cerúndolo, 56th in the Association of Tennis Professionals’ (ATP) ranking and the last Argentine surviving in the men’s singles, lost on Monday, falling 6-3, 7-6 (2), 7-6 (6) to Italy’s Matteo Berrettini (105).

It was a hard-fought affair at the Suzanne Lenglen Court. With both players coming off tough, five-set matches in the previous round, former world No. 6 and Wimbledon semifinalist Berrettini showed a little extra in key moments, taking the duel in just over two and a half hours of play.

It wraps up a historic tournament for Cerúndolo. Younger brother of 2026 Argentina Open champion Francisco, he sealed one of the upsets of the tournament when he beat Jannik Sinner in five sets and became the first Argentine to beat a sitting World. No. 1 since Juan Martín del Potro in 2018.

For the first time in his career, he reached the round of 16 at a Grand Slam, also defeating Britain’s Jacob Fearnley (125) and Spain’s Martín Landaluce (69) along the way. It’ll be enough to see him jump 12 spots in the rankings to get to 42.

Bad results for Argentines over the weekend

Cerúndolo reached Monday as the last Argentine standing, as the results didn’t go his countrymen’s way over the weekend in Paris.

On Saturday, Francisco Cerúndolo (26) had a very poor showing and fell to United States player Zachary Svajda (85) by 6-3, 6-4, 3-6, 4-6, 6-3, while namesake Francisco Comesaña (102) battled hard but couldn’t beat Berrettini in the third round, falling 7-6 (3), 5-7, 6-7 (4), 6-4 y 7-6 (13) after over five hours of play.

Former doubles World No. 1 Horacio Zeballos is the last Argentine in contention. Alongside usual partner Marcel Granollers, the Mar del Plata player is already in the quarterfinals, aiming to repeat his 2025 win.
