Career edit

His best performance at a professional tournament was at Viña del Mar in 2006, when he progressed to the quarterfinals. After progressing through qualifying, he defeated Tomas Behrend and Daniel Gimeno-Traver before losing against Chilean Nicolás Massú 6–4, 6–7, 3–6. After defeating Dmitry Tursunov in the ATP 500 Barcelona he fell to Paul-Henri Mathieu. In a Challenger tournament in Tarragona, he retired against Albert Portas due to a hip injury. His career ended in the same year as he retired at the age of 22.[citation needed]

On the ATP Challenger Circuit, he achieved moderate success, reaching four semi-finals, all on clay courts; Vigo (2005, l. Ivan Navarro), Geneva (2005, l. Werner Eschauer), Monza (2006, l. Flavio Cipolla) and Turin (2006, l. Marcel Granollers).

Coaching edit

After his retirement, Cuadrado coached Svetlana Kuznetsova.[2][3]
