Before facing the Australian Rafa Nadal , he has also had to overcome very complicated rivals, as was the case of the American Reilly Opelka , whom he won in two sets in the round of 16 of the Masters 1,000 of Indian Wells 2022. In the previous round he also he undid Daniel Evans in two sets, but before beating the Briton, another American, Sebastian Korda, also succumbed to the Manacorí’s tennis.
