Pella battles to reach quarter-final

Guido Pella is a little bit closer of his goal: defend the title in Campinas Challenger.

Today, the 23 years old player had to work hard to beat Brazilian Andre Ghem (193°) 6-2, 5-7, 6-2 in one hour and 51 minutes of game.

Tomorrow, after midday (12.30 in Argentina), the first seed goes on to face Brazilian Guilherme Clezar, who defeated Argentinian Guillermo Duran, 6-4, 6-3.

Pella started last Tuesday with a victory 6-1, 6-2 over Brazilian Thiago Alves in 43 minutes.

Guido reached doubles semifinals too. Playing with Peruvian Sergio Galdos, Guido defeated Americans Bjorn Fratangelo and Mitchell Krueger, 6-4, 6-2.

The Argentinian-Peruvian duo will cross with Brazilian Thiago Alves and Thiago Monteiro in next round.
