Open Court

MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

Rublev, Rune and Zverev take to the main court in Rotterdam Wednesday.

With a potentially very good one between No. 5 seed Hubert Hurkacz and Grigor Dimitrov relegated to the second court.

The field is strong – Jannik Sinner, who won last week in Montpellier, isn’t even seeded in this crew.

Also look for an old-school, mid-30-something clash between Richard Gasquet and Stan Wawrinka that the “elder” of the two won in straights.

And, in Buenos Aires, Carlos Alcaraz finally mad his 2023 debut, on the red clay. It took three sets, but he got through.

In Delray, Canadian Denis Shapovalov opened his tournament – and closed it just as quickly while the great story of Matija Pecotic ended in the second round.
