Carlos Alberto Berlocq (born March 2 , 1983 in Chascomus, , Argentina ) is a professional Male Tennis Player from Argentina . He is nicknamed '''Charly'''. Berlocq started playing tennis at the age of four and has had his success on the ATP Futures and Challenger circuits. In 2004 he made six consecutive finals in the Futures events, winning three of them, two finals each in Argentina , France and Slovenia . He also made his first Challenger final in Manta , Ecuador losing to Giovanni Lapentti and then won another Futures title in Argentina . At the end of 2005 Berlocq finished inside the top 100 for the first time on the back of strong form on the Challenger circuit where he went 44-20 in singles and won two Challenger titles in Turin defeating Alessandro Di Mauro and in Cordenons defeating Jerome Haehnel . Berlocq also qualified for his first ATP main event in Stuttgart losing to Razvan Sabau and also played doubles in Bucharest with Mariano Puerta . Berlocq has struggled to adapt his level from the Futures and Challengers to the ATP main level events and has to date acheived only one win on ATP , however this win was significant, just as much as what happened in the match after Berlocq's maiden victory. In the ATP Masters Series event in Miami Berlocq defeated the much-hyped American junior and wildcard entrant Donald Young 6-0 6-0 . Both Berlocq and Young had never won a match on the ATP and this win was achieved on Hardcourt which is not Berlocq's favoured surface. After defeating Young, then Berlocq played American James Blake and lost this match 6-0 6-0, therefore creating an unusual achievement of winning his first professional match 6-0 6-0 and then losing by the same scoreline in the next round. Berlocq's favourite surface is clay and is currently coached by Gabriel Markus . EXTERNAL LINKS AND REFERENCES
