 Evo really has to hope he can get a win over Fognini. Generally Id hope yes, but in Rome

 

Jack - Coric not been on recent form, Id like to think Jack can win that one. Whether he will

Coric won a round in Monte Carlo and lost his opener in Barcelona - beat Hasan in Madrid before losing to Zverev. So hes 2-3 on the season on clay, 9-10 for the season as a whole.

Jack is 3-3 on clay and 12-9 overall for the year. So Id say he and Coric are pretty closely matched on clay and generally - nothing to fear but its probably a fifty fifty match.

Again, not enough Brits in the doubles this time to justify a separate thread:

L32:  (4) Austin Krajicek (USA) & Neal Skupski CR 19 (9+10) vs Marcelo Melo & Alexander Zverev (BRA/GER) CR 125 (37+88)

L32:  Lloyd Glasspool & Jean-Julien Rojer (NED) CR 62 (38+24) vs Jamie Murray & Michael Venus (NZL) CR 45 (22+23)  hmm
L32:  Sebastian Korda & Jordan Thompson (USA/AUS) CR 93 (57+36 (*)) vs (3) Rajeev Ram (USA) & Joe Salisbury CR 11 (6+5)

(*) both CHs thanks to their lifting the title in Madrid last week, Korda up by 128 places & Thompson by 22

Only eight pairs seeded pairs this week.

Pissing down in Rome now just as the match before Jack's was well into a second set. Boooo. At least they have covered the court.

Jack now on court, just missed 3 BPs to go 4-2 up.

I can't help but be a little intrigued by who the young lady is who's sat behind Trotters, Ferreira and Herbert......wink

JD breaks to take the first set 7-5.  This is entertaining tennis.  The stream on https://en24.sportplus.live/tennis/atp-rome/5424474/   isn't great, but it is free and it works, which is more than can be said for TennisTV.com

JD is hitting big, maybe Coric's level has dipped a tiny bit.  JD leads 4-0.   This type of hitting will get him far on faster surfaces.
