Frances Tiafoe and Flavio Cobolli have secured their places in the final of the ATP 500 event in Acapulco, Mexico.

Italy’s Flavio Cobolli earned his spot after a grueling battle against Serbia’s Miomir Kecmanovic. Cobolli ultimately prevailed with a 7-6, 3-6, 6-4 victory in a match that lasted two hours and 25 minutes.

On the other side of the draw, Frances Tiafoe completed a dramatic comeback against fellow American Brandon Nakashima. Despite losing the first set and facing a match point in the second, Tiafoe rallied to win 3-6, 7-6, 6-4.

Tiafoe enters the final with a psychological edge, holding a perfect 2-0 head-to-head record against Cobolli on the professional circuit. The American will look to maintain his undefeated streak to claim the title in Acapulco.
