There is something in Alejandro Davidovich Fokina that seems to have clicks, in his tennis, in his competitive spirit and in his enjoyment inside the court.

It is that the 25 -year -old Spanish did not regret not being able to succeed a few weeks ago in Delray Beach and it was for more. Now, he will have a new chance to raise his first trophy at the Mexican Open Telcel presented by HSBC after defeating Denis Shapovalov 7-6 (3) and 7-6 (1) in two hours and fifteen minutes to get his triumph No. 80 in his career on fast tracks at the ATP Tour.

In his first participation in the ATP 500 of Acapulco, No. 48 of the PIF ATP Rankings has won a place in the final game making it clear that it never makes the matches lost. In fact, before the Canadian 4-1 adverse began before reacting and starting the reins of the match, reaching the tiebreaker where he was the most solid and stable player.

In the second manga, the opposite happened. The Spanish broke first, was 3-0, and 4-1 forward, before the Shapovalov reaction. The Canadian took out for Set, but could not seal the sleeve and the Spanish managed to stretch the definition to a new Tie-Break, where his tennis flow again shone.

In the definition it will be measured before the eighth preclassified Tomas Machac, who defeated Brandon Nakashima on Friday 6-4, 6-4.

With his triumph, Machac became just the second player of his country to reach the final after Jiri Novak, who was runner -up in 1996 and monarch in 1998, when the tournament was held on beaten land in the capital of the country. In addition, it is the Czech room to reach a final of an ATP 500, which began to play since 2009, after Tomas Berdych, Radek Stepanek and Jiri Vesely.
