Nuno Borges and Cristian Garin, both unseeded, will meet next at the Estoril Open. They will square off in the quarterfinals with the winner playing either Hubert Hurkacz or Pablo Llamas Ruiz next. Cristian Garin defeated fifth seed Arthur Fils in three sets to advance to this round. This was his seventh win of the season and it improved his record to 7-8. Garin is a strong performer on clay but this season he hasn’t quite got going on the surface. His two wins in Estoril have allowed him to tie his clay record at 5-5. The Chilean has alternated between the tour and challenger circuits and before Estoril, had not gone past the second round in the former. He is now up one place to 111th in the live ranking.

Nuno Borges has advanced to the quarterfinals here for the first time. He defeated third seed Lorenzo Musetti in straight sets to achieve this feat.

He won the Phoenix Challenger in March and was a quarterfinalist in Los Cabos. The 27 year old has moved up four places to 58th in the live ranking. Borges is a strong performer on clay and has recorded over 110 wins on the surface in his career.
