historical week of Marco Trungelliti. The Argentine, by beating the Italian Luciano Darderi by 6-4 and 7-6(2) he continued to knock down milestones. The thing is that he had already secured his place in the Top 100 ATP. Now, upon reaching the final of the ATP 250 in Marrakech, will play his first at this level

This way, at 36 years old, becomes the oldest tennis player to reach an ATP final for the first time. “I feel pretty good, but especially on the mental side. Maybe on the tennis side today was not a great day for either of us,” he said after a new victory.

“Maybe for obvious reasons, a little worse on him than on my side, but mentally I think I was there and I was able to compete in the best possible way and I think that for tomorrow it is the most important thing,” he said, thinking about the final.

And be Top 100? “In the end it is a consequence of the work we have been doing for a long time and Luckily it happened late, but at least it happened. It would have been quite hard not to have been able to achieve it, so now with that calmness I can enjoy a little moreif it is possible. But in this sport you are always looking for more, so we will be looking for more.”

It is worth remembering that after this final he will be at least 75th ATP, after winning his first semi-final in almost 8 years after his only participation in the top four of an ATP tournament (Umag 2018).
