Cerundolo also became the first Argentine ATP Tour champion on grass since Frana in 1995 when he won his second title at the 2023 Eastbourne tournament.

Notably, Cerundolo achieved a remarkable feat at the 2022 Miami tournament as the world number 103. He became the lowest-ranked semifinalist in the tournament’s 37-year history and the first player to reach the semifinals in his ATP Masters 1000 main draw debut since Janowicz in 2012 Paris. His family is also involved in sports, with his father Alejandro having played professional tennis, his younger brother Juan Manuel winning the 2021 Cordoba title, and his sister Constanza being a part of the Argentine field hockey team that won a gold medal at the 2018 Youth Olympics.

If he succeeds, he will be the fifth Argentine to reach multiple finals in the Buenos Aires event. Other Argentines who have achieved this feat include Jose Acasuso, Guillermo Coria, Juan Monaco, and Diego Schwartzman. Martinez, on the other hand, is looking to secure his fourth ATP Tour final, with a current record of 1 win and 2 losses, all of which have been on clay.
