Thiago Monteiro has not been in good form at all for the past couple of months and looks to take that form into the Rio Open as well. He made it to the quarter-finals of the Concepcion Challenger losing to Dellien after beating the likes of Casanova and Barrios Vera. In the Challenger De Tigre Two, he was the champion after beating De Jong, Collarini, Torres, Lavagno, and Dutra Da Silva. He was also the champion at the Challenger De Tigre One. In the ongoing Rio Open, he beat Pucinelle De Almeida in the first qualifier by 6-2, 6-3, and in the second qualifier, he beat Jarry with the score ending 2-6, 3-6. In the ongoing Rio Open, he beat Thiem in the first-round matchup by 1-6, 6-3, 6-7.
Cameron Norrie is no newcomer to this kind of tournament and has been a major threat to every opponent in the last few months as he has been in scintillating form. After missing out on the title at the Argentina Open losing to Alcaraz in the final, he will be absolutely desperate to clinch the ongoing Rio title. He couldn’t make it past the third round at the Australian Open losing to Lehecka and at the ASB Classic, he again missed out on a well-deserved title as he was beaten by Gasquet in the final. At the Paris Masters, he was knocked out by Moutet at the round of 32 stage and at Vienna Open, he lost to Giron at the round of 16 stage. In the ongoing Rio Open, he beat Juan Cerundolo in the first-round matchup by 5-7, 1-6.
