It seemed like he had the ticket to the round of 16 completely secured, but Marco Trungelliti starred in one of the most difficult-to-explain defeats of the week at the ATP 250 in Geneva. The Argentine was leading by 7-5, 5-1 (30-15), but ended up losing to Mariano Navone in a completely unexpected turn of events: 7-5, 5-7, 1-6, after 2 hours and 55 minutes of battle. Trungelliti began to show physical problems in a knee and ended up collapsing from that favorable 5-1 lead in the second set. Navone, much stronger physically and never losing faith, took advantage of his compatriot's downturn to complete an incredible comeback and set a date with Cameron Norrie in the round of 16.
