[edit] Professional Career
[edit] 2000 to 2007
Marrero earned his first world ranking late in 2000 as a 20 year old, but he spent only a few weeks inside the top-500 until early 2005. By late 2005, he had made it into the top-300, but faded over the next year to close out 2006 outside the top-400. In the middle of 2007, he again inched into the top-300, but faded again to close out 2007 at #362.
[edit] 2008
As a qualifier, he reached the final in January of a Challenger in Chile, losing to #132 Ruben Ramirez-Hidalgo after upsetting #272 Sebastian Decoud, #187 Adrian Garcia, and #111 Nicolas Lapentti, to get his ranking back into the top-300 at #289. He followed that up the next week by beating Ramirez-Hidalgo again to qualify into an ATP stop in Chile, where he beat Garcia again before losing to #104 Fabio Fognini in the 2nd round, getting his ranking to #275. He failed to qualify the next two weeks at ATP stops, although he did record an upset win over #114 Maximo Gonzalez in February.
