–

Quarterfinals on both the singles and doubles side in Monte Carlo in Friday, with the draws having worked themselves out into some pretty interesting matchups.

Will Holger Rune recover enough from two wins on Thursday – including nearly 3 1/2 hours to beat Grigor Dimitrov – to have enough juice to take on the man of the moment, Jannik Sinner? Almost.

(Rune also had doubles later. Busy few days for him.

(Monte Carlo is six hours ahead of EDT)
