Italian Open star is son of World Cup winner who scored winning goal in final
Roman Andres Burruchaga made waves at the Italian Open on Wednesday. The Argentine enjoyed a successful Masters 1000 debut after coming through qualifying, causing an upset as he earned the biggest win of his career over world No. 44 Lorenzo Sonego in straight sets.
While Burruchaga is a lesser-known name on the tennis circuit, his father, Jorge Burruchaga, needs little introduction. A former professional footballer, Jorge scored the winning goal in the 1986 World Cup final, when Argentina faced West Germany.
