Definitely, the matches between  Lebron/Stupaczuk  et  Gonzalez/Sanz  are played out on small details, but above all on a decisive tie break in the 3rd set.

This tie break of the 3rd set had turned in the direction of  Momo Gonzalez  et  Jon sanz  au  P1 of Buenos Aires  Two weeks ago, the world's 5th pair won  6/3 3/6 7/6  in 2 hours 50 minutes of play in very slow conditions.

On the other hand, at the Major of Rome, it's good  Juan lebron  et  Franco Stupaczuk  who are back in business after a slow period in recent weeks.

The Spanish-Argentine pair won this time and validated their qualification for the semi-finals, once again in more than 2 hours of play and again on a  decisive tie break in the 3rd set. (6/3 6/7 7/6) 

A second set that escapes Lebron/Stupa…

 Juan lebron  had taken out the tank top in the heat of Rome, with  Franco Stupaczuk , they quickly led 6/3 in the first set before losing the second on a tie break. It was finally at the end of the suspense and in  a new tie break  that Lebron/Stupaczuk were able to make the difference thanks to a  Franco Stupaczuk particularly inspired .

Difficult conditions

This morning it was already over  30 degrees at the Foro Italico , a heat that will inevitably weigh on the players' physique for the rest of the competition. We are thinking in particular of the outburst of  rafael mendez  a few days ago regarding the unbearable heat there.

 Juan lebron  et  Franco Stupaczuk  will in any case need to recover well before their semi-final tomorrow which could lead to a new confrontation against  Chingotto/Galan .
