There will be an Argentine in the final of the ATP Santiago tournament as Facundo Bagnis is taking on Federico Delbonis. Home hero Cristian Garin is two matches away from taking the title, he will take on Daniel Elahi Galan in the other semifinal.
Facundo Bagnis vs Federico Delbonis
Bagnis just beat Delbonis in Cordoba 6-4 7-5, but does trail the overall h2h 4-3. A win here would even them up. Bagnis is into his second semifinal in three weeks and has earned three tough victories to make it this far. Delbonis had a tough match against Jaume Munar to open the tournament but it’s been routine his last two outings. This will be a hard fought match, but Bagnis’s recent victory inspires more confidence in his game than his countryman. Bagnis in 3
Daniel Elahi Galan vs Cristian Garin
The tournament’s top seed Garin has roared to life this season with two routine wins to reach the semifinals. He was not facing the most difficult of competition, but his game showed significant improvement when playing on home clay. Galan has scored some impressive wins thus far but the smart pick would be Garin here, who has proven to be more reliable on tour and is playing at home. Garin in 2
