BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) - Unseeded Peruvian Luis Horna ousted Brazil Open winner Guillermo Canas from the Copa Telmex, advancing to the quarterfinals of the clay-court tournament with a 4-6, 6-2, 6-2 victory Thursday.
"I feel very comfortable. But it was a very hard and difficult match," Horna said as thousands cheered his hard-serving victory at the Buenos Aires Lawn Tennis Club.
The crowd also applauded Canas as he left center court declaring, "I did all I could to win, but Luis played a great match." The Argentine star recently returned to the ATP circuit after a 15-month doping suspension.
