No. 1 seed Gabriel Diallo went out meekly to Alex Molcan in his Bucharest opener Wednesday. So the favorite (on paper) is gone, and the highest seed remaining there is Adrian Mannarino, followed by Fabian Maroszan. Neither was able to play on Thursday, because rain wiped out all but one first-round doubles match.
In Marrakech, the four seeds who played – No. 2, No. 4, No. 6 and No. 7 – all went down.
In Houston, five of the eight singles players in action were home boys.
In all the tournaments this week, which are at the ATP 250 level, the top four seeds get byes.
(Houston is one hour behind EDT; Marrakech is five hours ahead, and Bucharest is seven hours ahead).
