–
The Estoril tournament has No. 1 seed (and defending champ) Casper Ruud and No. 2 Hubert Hurkacz still alive – and lucky loser Richard Gasquet. But unfortunately not his countryman, No. 7 seed Gaël Monfils, who was eliminated by Marton Fucsovics.
In Marrakech, No. 4 Lorenzo Sonego is the highest of the two seeds still alive.
But then there also is fabulous Fabio Fognini, who qualified for the event.
(Houston is one hour behind EDT; Marrakech is four hours ahead, and Estoril is five hours ahead).
