Who Will Win In This Head-To-Head?
Joao Fonseca, a Brazilian player, will be facing off against Federico Coria from Argentina. This will be their first meeting. Fonseca, who is 18 years old, is currently ranked as the world number 99 and reached a career-high rank of 98 in February 2025. In 2025, he has a record of 2 wins and 2 losses, with both wins coming in the second round of tournaments. Fonseca was the reigning Next Gen ATP Finals champion and achieved the world number 1 ranking in the junior category in September 2023. He broke into the top 100 of the PIF ATP Rankings in January 2025. Fonseca’s biggest career win came in the 2025 Australian Open where he defeated the number 9 ranked player, Rublev, in the first round as a qualifier. This made him the youngest man to defeat a top 10 player at the Australian Open in the history of the PIF ATP Rankings. Fonseca also had a successful run in the 2024 Next Gen ATP Finals, where he went undefeated with a record of 5-0 and became the third 18-year-old champion in the history of the event. He also became the first South American champion at the event. In his hometown of Rio de Janeiro, Fonseca secured his first ATP Tour win by defeating the 36th ranked player, Fils, in the first round of the 2024 tournament. He followed this up with a win over the 2020 Rio de Janeiro champion, Garin, in the second round, becoming the youngest Brazilian quarter-finalist in the Open Era. Fonseca’s achievements in junior tennis include winning the boys’ singles event at the 2023 US Open and reaching the quarter-finals at the Australian Open, Roland Garros, and Wimbledon earlier that year. He made his ATP Tour debut as a wildcard entrant in the Rio de Janeiro tournament in 2023 when he was just 16 years old. Fonseca’s opponent, Federico Coria, is 32 years old and currently ranked as the world number 115. His career-high ranking was 49 in February 2023 when he fell to Baez in an all-Argentine final at Cordoba. Coria’s best year in terms of wins was 2021, where he achieved a personal-best of 16 wins and reached his first final at Bastad and first semifinal at Cordoba. He made a remarkable comeback at the 2020 US Open after being down two sets to win his first-ever main draw match at a Grand Slam, defeating Jung. He faced Jung again and reached the third round of the 2020 Roland Garros. In the Challenger circuit, Coria has a record of 213 wins and 144 losses, with 6 titles to his name, including wins in Savannah, Prostejov, Brasilia, Milan, Concepcion, and Szczecin. Coria’s older brother, Guillermo Coria, who reached a career-high ranking of 3 in 2004, is his idol. In the current tournament, Coria had his first ATP Tour win since April when he defeated Gaston in the first round. He has reached the quarter-finals of an ATP Tour event 12 times, with a record of 6 wins and 6 losses. This will be his 6th quarter-final appearance in a tournament held in his home country, Argentina, and his first since reaching back-to-back semi-finals in Cordoba and Buenos Aires last year.
