A reborn Sonego ends Pedro Martinez's run in Barcelona

A reborn Sonego ends Pedro Martínez's journey in Barcelona.

Lorenzo Sonego ended Pedro Martínez Portero's dream at the 2026 Barcelona Open by defeating the Spaniard 6-2, 2-6, 6-4 in a match that lasted over 2 and a half hours. The Italian was playing his first match since the Australian Open as a wrist injury had kept him away from the courts until now. Despite the lack of rhythm being evident, especially in the second set, Sonego eventually prevailed with a decisive break in the penultimate game of the match. The Italian now awaits Rublev or Navone in the round of 16.
