–

A great win against a diminished Novak Djokovic was followed up by another impressive win over Karen Khachanov.

And without a day off, Cana-Chilean Alejandro Tabilo took on Zhizhen Zhang in a pretty serendipitous Rome quarterfinal draw Wednesday.

Would he be feeling some wear and tear from a career-making week? Apparently not!

Later, Alexander Zverev took on “Claylor” Fritz, who has impressed in Rome but whose road ended.

And the men play their doubles on the Grand Stand, while the women are on the smaller – but far more picturesque – Pietrangeli.
