The women get their main draw going on Tuesday.
But the men, whose final is a day later, will only wrap up the qualifying before getting to the main draw action on Wednesday.
Can Diego Schwartzman, who came back to beat fellow fellow veteran Albert Ramos-Viñolas in the first round on Monday, go all the way and make the main draw in his Rome finale? Yes, he can!
Schwartzman made the final in the one-off pandemic fall edition of the Italian Open in 2020, losing in three sets to Novak Djokovic after beating both Kei Nishikori and Matteo Barrettini on the day – and Ramos-Viñolas, in the second round back when it was a 64-draw.
Notably, the qualifier who “won” the Rafael Nadal lottery is Belgium’s Zizou Bergs.
