Top seeds Juan Sebastian Cabal and Robert Farah will play for the Argentina Open doubles title after completing a 4-6, 6-3, 10-6 comeback against No. 3 seeds David Marrero and Frank Moser in the semi-finals. Marrero/Moser saved five break points and scored the lone break of the first set, but Cabal/Farah only missed three first serves the rest of the way to take the win.
