The draw ceremony for the Internazionali BNL d’Italia will take place Monday, 4 May at 10:30 a.m. local time. The ceremony will take place at the historic Piazza del Popolo.
All eyes will be on if six-time champion Novak Djokovic lands in the same half as Jannik Sinner, the World No. 1 in the PIF ATP Rankings. The Italian on Sunday made history by claiming a record fifth consecutive ATP Masters 1000 trophy at the Mutua Madrid Open. Sinner, 24, will return to home soil this week and aim for his first Rome title.
Should Sinner triumph at the Foro Italico, he would join Djokovic as the only men to complete the Career Golden Masters. The 38-year-old Djokovic has won all nine ATP Masters 1000 events twice.
Djokovic is set to return to action for the first time since a fourth-round showing in Indian Wells.
Rome main-draw action will take place from 6-17 May. The past five editions of the Internazionali BNL d’Italia have featured five different champions.
