The Guayaquil Challenger tournament in Ecuador experienced significant disruptions due to heavy rainfall. Initial weather conditions suspended several singles and doubles matches, including a round of 16 singles match between Brazilian João Lucas Reis and Ecuadorian Emilio Camacho.

Following the rain, tournament top seed Camilo Ugo Carabelli was disqualified during his quarterfinal match against João Lucas Reis da Silva. Carabelli reportedly expressed frustration with the clay court conditions and walked off the court while the score was tied at 5-5 in the first set. After Carabelli refused to return to play, officials issued a default, awarding the win to Reis da Silva. As a consequence of the disqualification, Carabelli forfeited 12 ATP ranking points and $3,095 in prize money.
