Facing Luca Van Assche, Fonseca swept past the Frenchman, 4-2, 4-2, 4-1, in the condensed scoring format. He did not face a break point throughout the decisive win, finishing with an overhead winner from the baseline.
“I’m playing (at) a really high level. Just very proud of myself, the way that I’m being with my routine this week. So focused,” he said in an on-court interview afterwards.
Fonseca previously edged out Arthur Fils and Jakub Mensik in deciding sets, in between outclassing Learner Tien. And that’s not all.
