Facundo Díaz Acosta is the new champion of the Argentina Open. He won four challengers titles last year and is slowly becoming an ATP-level tennis player.

The keys to his success are power, strategy, order and mental maturity. He is a good boy, educated, respectful, hard-working and who always looks the interlocutor on duty in the eyes, says his coach Mariano Monachesi. The 24-year-old is another example of what an Argentine club can produce. He learned to play in one in Núñez and decades later he think big in Palermo.
