–
Can qualifier Jiri Vesely continue his crazy run in Dubai, which has included upset wins over Roberta Bautista Agut (the king of February), world No. 1 Novak Djokovic and Canadian Denis Shapovalov?
Or can No. 2 seed Andrey Rublev pursue his quest for the Doha-Dubai double?
It turned out it was the favorite who pulled it out.
In Santiago, Chilean-Canadian Alejandro Tabilo was into the semifinals, bookending a breakthrough South American swing that will have him in the top 100 for the first time on Monday. Unfortunately, his journey ended there in three tough sets.
And in Acapulco, another final involving Rafael Nadal and the surprising Cameron Norrie. And Nadal continues his unbeaten run in 2022.
