A chuva cancelou a rodada desta segunda-feira do challenger 75 de Guayaquil, no Equador. Um único brasileiro chegou a entrar em quadra: o catarinense Pedro Boscardin. O duelo dele com o boliviano Juan Carlos Prado Angelo parou no primeiro set, quando o placar mostrava 2/1 para o adversário. Até a interrupção, apenas três games tinham sido disputados.
A partida será retomada nesta terça-feira, por volta de 14h30 no horário de Brasília. Quem avançar pode encontrar pela frente o dominicano Nick Hardt ou então o argentino Juan Manuel La Serna.
Nas duplas, a estreia de terça também é dos paulistas Marcelo Zormann e Luis Britto. Por volta das 17h, a parceria mede forças com Anthony Genov, da Bulgária, e o marroquino Younes Lalami.
Já na chave principal, o pernambucano João Lucas Reis é o cabeça 5 do torneio e aparece como 186º do ranking mundial. A estreia dele deve ficar para a quarta-feira, diante de um tenista que sair do qualifying, ou seja, o adversário ainda não está definido.
O qualifying, aliás, teve dois nomes experientes do país que abandonaram a disputa em Guayaquil. Wilson Leite deixou a quadra por causa de náuseas, quando perdia para o argentino Mateo Del Pino por 5/7, 6/3 e 1/0. José Pereira parou por uma lesão nas costas, atrás do mexicano Alex Hernandez, que vencia por 6/1 e 1/0. Os dois, portanto, não conseguiram terminar seus jogos.
Para os brasileiros, o dia rendeu apenas um set incompleto, e a programação de segunda-feira praticamente não andou por causa da chuva.
