Ruud and Tsitsipas - 17 years ago (Pic: Stefanos Tsitsipas)
Fourth-round matches – eight of them – on the second Tuesday as Jannik Sinner continues to lead the pack.
And young Spaniard Rafael Jodar continues to create a lot of interest.
The marathon heartbreaker of the was Ruud over Tsitsipas – two “older school” players who are battling to get back to their former top-five form. Ruud took it. Barely.
