Sebastián Báez

Sebastián Báez is a professional Argentinian tennis player. He is currently ranked number 50 in the world. Báez is newsworthy because he is a potential opponent for Carlos Alcaraz, the world's number one ranked player, in the second round of the Monte Carlo Masters 1000 tournament. Alcaraz, who is defending his title at the event, receives a first-round bye and will face the winner of the match between Báez and Stan Wawrinka. Alcaraz has played Báez three times previously, winning all three matches. Báez's performance in the first round against Wawrinka will determine whether he faces Alcaraz, making him relevant to the tournament's progression and Alcaraz's title defense.
