Pella Lost to Zverev in Last-16 at Cincinnati
Coming into the prestigious Cincinnati Masters on the back of a first-round loss to eventual runner-up Matteo Berrettini at this year’s Wimbledon Championships, Pella was keen to find form early in the hard court swing and in time for the US Open.
And, there was enough in the Argentine’s run at the tournament to give him a world of belief going into the Winston-Salem Open.
Defying most estimates, the 93-ranked Pella reached the last-16 at the Masters but lost to current World No.5 Alexander Zverev in the battle for the quarter-finals.
The Argentine opened his campaign with a thumping win over veteran Austrian David Goffin and followed up with a stunning upset of World No.36 Fabio Fognini.
The victory over the Italian saw him set up a last-16 showdown against the lanky, in-form German, who clinched the singles gold at the Tokyo Olympics.
However, the Argentine couldn’t put up a fight against the rampaging German, who routed him in straight sets to storm into the last eight.
Though he couldn’t go deeper, the last-16 finish at the Masters will be put him in good stead as he opens his Winston-Salem campaign against tricky Australian Jordan Thompson.

Though Thompson took the opening set at a canter, the Swede turned the match on its head, winning it in three sets.

However, the Argentine is upbeat after his strong run at Cincinnati will be tough to beat.
