The Uruguayan began his first APT season greatly, and aiming for the Asuncion Open, he declared: 

— It was a difficult tournament, we were on the verge of being out in the semifinals, but we managed to recover. It was a very good start, but there is no time to celebrate because we will make our debut in the Open on Wednesday. We know that all the future matches we play will be complicated, but we will try to get as far as possible.

Meanwhile, Restivo remarked:

— The goal is to improve match after match, to be more and more competitive. With the aim of getting a place in the final master.

It is worth mentioning, that the winner of the Future 1000 would receive a wild card to play the Open, but as both finalist couples have already qualified for the draw, a Lucky Loser from the previous phase will receive it.

Ramos and Restivo will make their debut at the Asuncion Open on Wednesday, precisely against Del Moral and Ferreyra, the couple they defeated in the final of the Future 1000.
