Alcaraz, Medvedev, Tsitsipas on Day 4 schedule at ATP Masters 1000
Rain in Rome has delayed Saturday’s action at the Internazionali BNL d’Italia, where play is currently suspended until at least 3:15 pm local time (CEST).
After the start of the day’s play was initially postponed by 30 minutes, Monte-Carlo champion Andrey Rublev kick-started his campaign with a straight-sets win against Alex Molcan on Court Pietrangeli.
The rain returned again shortly after the conclusion of that match, however, leaving a host of big names waiting to start their second-round matches at the clay-court ATP Masters 1000. They include second seed Carlos Alcaraz who will guarantee himself a return to No. 1 in the next edition of the Pepperstone ATP Rankings simply by taking the court for his Rome debut against Albert Ramos-Vinolas.
Update: Matches won’t resume before 3:15.
