MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

ATP Roma – Saturday, May 11, 2024 final results

On the last possible day for a Rome debut, Canadian Félix Auger-Aliassime swings into action, against a potentially tough customer in Botic Van de Zandschulp.

It’s not likely to take place until the afternoon EDT, as the fourth match on scenic Pietrangeli court.

No. 2 seed Daniil Medvedev and No. 10 Holger Rune (who is playing an Italian), got Centrale slots along with the highly anticipated second-round match between Rafael Nadal and No. 7 seed Hubert Hurkacz.

Nadal didn’t have much on the day, beaten easily while Medvedev got past a potentially tough one against Jack Draper.

(Rome is 6 hours ahead of EDT)
