Weeks 19 & 20 - ATP Masters 1000 - Internazionali BNL d'Italia Open - Rome, Italy (clay) - SINGLES ONLY


Big upset brewing in Rome - Alcaraz is 6-3 4-3 (with a break) down to Marozsan , the Hungarian. Marozsan is ranked 135 and, being honest, I had never heard of him at all!!

And Alcaraz does indeed lose, 6-3 7-6 - bit of a stunner!

Alcaraz was 1.01 to win which is almost unheard of.

Cam lost the first set against Djoko, 6-3. Feels like Djoko is a tough match up for Cam really, he does what Cam does but better and stronger, when it is boiled down. Hard to see a Cam win here.

If anyone wants a giggle they can see cam tagging Novak with an overhead with Novaks back to the net.

 Yes - that wound him up.

There was a bit of needle throughout the match, even before that.

A bit more detail from the Beeb.

Sort of handbags really, but to be honest , cam didnt need to do that and I would have been annoyed if someone had done it to me. As Djoko says, they move on and what happens on court, stays on court.

Rune beats Djoko. Hard to know what to make of this clay season or the chances for the FO - I dont think I would be having any sort of gamble on this, even if I did bet!

That said, Rune himself was RU in Monte Carlo and now SF here in Rome, with Tsitsipas the other player showing some sort of consistency (and Struff as well as an outsider)

So Djoko out. Looks like even for him things are slowly catching up with him. On any day he is beatable. It's just good to see the other guys all getting a chance now. Adds more excitement for both the French Open and Wimbledon.

He'll probably blame the defeat on that unsavoury spat with Cam yesterday.  wink

 Djoko looked as though he was having problems with his back. I know his elbow has been mentioned but he was moving rather gingerly, putting a towel behind his back when he sat down, he really didn't look A1 physically fine
