Buenos Aires, May 26 (NA) — Argentine tennis player Genaro Olivieri (227th in the world ranking) entered the main draw at Roland Garros this Friday after beating Bulgarian Adrián Andreev (214th) 6-1, 5-7 and 6-4 in the last instance of the classification.

In this way, the native of Bragado will play the first Grand Slam of his career, and will be the tenth Argentine to give the present in the second relevant competition of the season.

The 24-year-old tennis player battled for two and a half hours to defeat the European and thus obtained a ticket for the tournament in the French capital. In addition, he took revenge for the three failed attempts at qualifying for Wimbledon and the US Open (in 2022), and for the last Australian Open.

The bad news of the day was the fall of Facundo Díaz Acosta (137th), who lost to the Austrian Sebastián Ofner (118th) 7-5, 6-3. The man born in Vicente López put an end to a streak of 12 victories in a row and will expect some loss, like Facundo Bagnis (124th), Ranzo Olivo (255th) and Camilo Ugo Carabelli (150th) to participate in the Grand Slam.
