–
The first two men’s quarterfinals feature the four players who were supposed to be there on paper.
That hasn’t happened reliably so far this season. But in this case it means Carlos Alcaraz plays Jack Draper, and No. 2 seed Alexander Zverev meets No. 8 (and local hero) Lorenzo Musetti.
Can’t complain about that, not one bit.
In addition, the late-night Tuesday match between Casper Ruud and Jaume Munar was called off because of the “late night” rules, rescheduled for this afternoon on the Grand Stand Arena.
(Rome is six hours ahead of EDT).
