Cordoba, March 1: Argentine teenager Juan Manuel Cerundolo celebrated an historic ATP Tour debut with a Cordoba Open title.
Cerundolo capped a dream week in Buenos Aires, where the 19-year-old qualifier upstaged fifth seed Albert Ramos-Vinolas 6-0 2-6 6-2 in Sunday's final.
With the memorable triumph, Cerundolo became the only Argentinian in the Open Era to win a title in their tour-level debut.
