Open Court

MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

A pretty boffo Tuesday in Rotterdam with Tsitsipas, Auger-Aliassime, Medvedev, Zverev and Hurkacz headlining on the main court.

Auger-Aliassime, the defending champion, takes on the potentially very tricky Lorenzo Sonego of Italy.

They played once, on outdoor clay in Hamburg all the way back in 2020, and Auger-Aliassime won that one. He won this one as well.

Meanwhile, in Delray Beach, a full-time financial services executive who played at Princeton and is 33, beat Jack Sock in his ATP Tour main-draw debut. Quite a story.
