Portuguese tennis player Henrique Rocha qualified this Wednesday for the final of the Australian Open qualifiers, by beating Hungarian Marton Fucsovics in three partials.
The 20-year-old started by breaking the serve of Fucsovics, the third seed in the classification, twice, winning the first partial 2-6.
The second set was more balanced and it was only in the tie-break that Rocha, 174th in the world, managed to beat the 32-year-old veteran, 100th in the ATP rankings, 6-7 (3-7), closing the match in an hour and 45 minutes.
At the end of qualifying for the Australian Open, the first Grand Slam tournament of the season, Rocha will face the winner of the match between Austrian Lukas Neumayer and Italian Matteo Gigante
