MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

Of all the “slow” days in the latter half of these extended 1000s, Thursday at least has both men’s and women’s singles and doubles.

The women are at the semifinal stage; the men have their third and fourth quarterfinals and that includes world No. 1 Jannik Sinner.

The big question: after three consecutive third-set tiebreak wins, does Peyton Stearns have ANY gas left at all?

(Rome is six hours ahead of EDT).
