Open Court

MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

After the retirement carnage Friday in Basel, No. 8 seed Alejandro Davidovich Fokina is the only seed left, with his best chance at picking off a big title in quite awhile.

Can he do it this time? It’s also a great chance for Joao Fonseca to do the same, and finish his first big season strongly.

In Vienna, the top four seeds made the semifinals, which makes for a great Saturday.

(Basel and Vienna are 6 hours ahead of EDT)
