MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

Italian Open – Saturday, May 20, 2023 final results

ROME – With the exception of the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds – a major exception, we’ll grant you – the men’s singles event ran very much according to form.

And so the No. 3, No. 4, No. 5 and No. 7 seeds squared off (weather permitting) in what would have been excellent semifinals – they were still pretty good – but the intermittent rain suspensions kind of killed the buzz

The women’s singles final only began close to 11 p.m., and they had to move the women’s doubles final over to Pietrangeli (which was packed with the fans with night session tickets who were waiting while the “day” session ended). And the final ended with an injury retirement.

So it was … a lot.

(Rome is six hours ahead of EDT).
