All you need to know as the Italian Open continues…
It is the men’s semi-finals and a landmark day for Chilean tennis with two players in the mix.
First up, 2017 champion Alexander Zverev takes on Alejandro Tabilo, who is in his maiden Masters 1000 semi-final at 2.30pm.
Tommy Paul will then take on Nicolas Jarry in the second semi-final, at 7.30pm.
Both Chileans have claimed some notable wins this week with Tabilo taking out a lacklustre Novak Djokovic in the third round, while Jarry ousted an in-form Stefanos Tsitsipas to also reach a first Masters 1000 semi-final.
The third clay-court ATP Masters 1000 event of the season sees the players compete at the iconic Foro Italico in Rome.
World No 1 Novak Djokovic and ‘King of Clay’ Rafael Nadal made early exits as their preparation for the French Open at Roland Garros later this month took a hit.
Play begins at midday UK time for the rest of the tournament, with evening sessions on Friday.
The finals will be held on Saturday and Sunday, with play to commence at 12pm on both days.
Daniil Medvedev won the 2023 singles title, his first clay-court trophy, with victory over Holger Rune, while Elena Rybakina won the second WTA 1000 title of her career, defeating Anhelina Kalinina.
