Rodrigo Montoya defeated Christian Longoria, 6-15, 15-5, 11-6, in the Round of 16 at the World Racquetball Tour (WRT) Pleasanton Open in Pleasanton, California. The win sets up a rematch of Montoya and Jaime Martell, who is seeded 3rd in Pleasanton, as they faced off in the US Open earlier this month with Montoya coming out on top in five long games. Martell defeated Jose Daniel Ugalde, 15-2, 15-9, in the 16s.
Also, in the bottom bracket of the draw it will be 10 versus 15, as 10th seed Gerardo Franco was an upset winner over 7th seed Felipe Muñoz, 15-11, 15-5, and 15th seed Jose Diaz defeated 2nd seed Andree Parrilla, 15-11, 15-11.
