Tomas Martin Etcheverry‘s bid for a second quarter-final at the Stockholm ATP 250 ended on Tuesday without a ball being struck. The 27-year-old Argentine, seeded fifth, withdrew from the tournament because of discomfort in his left calf, handing compatriot Thiago Agustin Tirante a walkover into the quarter-finals.

The discomfort was located in the soleus muscle of his left leg, according to the reports of his withdrawal.

The withdrawal came a day after Etcheverry opened his week in Stockholm. It was the 50th hard-court win of his career, against 62 defeats, and it made him the second active Argentine to reach that mark. The landmark quickly gave way to a walkover.

The timing is awkward for Etcheverry. His career-high is No. 25, reached in May 2026, when he became Argentina’s No. 1 for the first time.

His season also includes his first ATP title, in Rio de Janeiro in February, where he beat Alejandro Tabilo 3-6, 7-6 (3), 6-4 in the final. His 29 tour-level wins in 2026 already rank as his third-best season total, behind 31 in 2024 and 30 in 2023.
