Roberto Bautista36 years old, left the world’s ‘top100’ last Monday and fell to 122nd place after failing to defend the semifinals of the 500 tournament in Halle.
A day later the opportunity to enter the elite was created with his pass to the quarterfinals of the Mallorca Championships.
The player from Castellón won this Tuesday Ugo Humbertsecond seed in the table and sixteenth on the lists, for 3-6, 6-3 y 6-4.
One more victory and Bautista will appear next Monday again among the 100 best. It should be remembered that his best result in the Mallorcan Open 250 was the 2022 final que cedi� ante Stefanos Tsitsipas.
If Roberto Carball’s next defeats Gael Monfils there could be a fratricidal duel in the quarterfinals which would guarantee the presence of a member of the ‘Armada’ in the semifinals.
