\"\"\/<\/p>\n

Thursday’s Play has resumed at the Rio Open presented by Claro<\/a> after a second rain delay. <\/p>\n

Following about an hour-long wait, Joao Fonseca<\/a> will play Ignacio Buse<\/a> on Quadra Guga Kuerten. Matteo Berrettini<\/a> vs. Dusan Lajovic<\/a> was scheduled to follow but was moved to Quadra 1. <\/p>\n

The first delay happened for approximately 45 minutes when Tomas Martin Etcheverry<\/a> was three points from victory against Vilius Gaubas<\/a> at 7-6(1), 5-3 15\/15. The Argentine returned to seal a 7-6(1), 6-4 win. <\/p>\n

In early action on Thursday, lucky loser Jaime Faria<\/a> defeated Damir Dzumhur<\/a> 7-6(1), 6-4 to reach the quarter-finals<\/p>\n
