The Italian Open has arrived, with the clay-court season continuing its build-up towards Roland-Garros at the end of the month.
British star Dan Evans faces homegrown hero Fabio Fognini in what could be a partisan atmosphere on the main show court.
Denis Shapovalov, Naomi Osaka and Sofia Kenin are all on the slate to play today.
The men’s tournament will see Rafael Nadal pushing to go long against a relatively depleted field, as Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz are both injured, though Novak Djokovic is back.
The women’s competition will pit world No. 1 Iga Świątek and No. 2 Aryna Sabalenka against one another as the latter aims to close the gap to the top.
