Denis moves on as he ousts Portero 6-4 6-4. Milos just dropped the first set to Lajovic in a tie-breaker.

Milos breaks Lajovic and is serving at 4-3 in set 2. Strange match as Milos has 5 aces and 8 double faults.

Milos had every right to be annoyed with the umpire, that ball was clearly out. Oh well, still serving for set 2.

Edit: We need a 3rd and deciding set as Milos takes set 2 6-4

Milos plays a pretty terrible game and Lajovic breaks to go up 3-1 in set 3. Of course, the reward for winning this match is taking on Rafa on clay, so it might just be best to pull the chute.

Milos still alive in doubles with Felix, but his singles in Rome is over as he is eliminated by Lajovic 7-6 4-6 6-2

Not his day today. A few brutal calls combined with some shoddy serving and you have him making an early exit.

I guess it doesn't matter as both are simply sacrificial lambs going up against a healthy, well rested Nadal next round. Hopefully he has his feet wet enough on clay again to go a few rounds at Roland Garros.

Speaking of doubles, a big win for Shapo and Bopanna as they eliminate the top seeded duo of Farah and Cabal 6-3 3-6 10-5

Shapo was on a collision course to play Fabio Fognini, but Fognini must have eaten an elephant and lost to the young French kid Ugo Humbert, thus it will be a battle of the 21 year old Canadian versus the 22 year old Frenchman.

Vika is one game away from delivering a double bagel to Sofia Kenin (the 2020 Aussie Open champion).

Edit: 6-0 6-0 achievement reached - As Girly would say, what kind of tennis is that?

This match has featured some lights out tennis.

Edit: The young Italian kid Musetti ended up eliminating Kei once the lights came back on.

Midway through the 3rd set in the Shapo - Humbert match with Denis up a break in set 3 (Humbert won the first set in a tie-breaker, Denis took set 2 by a 6-1 score).

I like that Shapo is getting mad at himself for not getting another break in this 3rd set. Humbert is hanging in there, give him credit.

Denis advances with a 6-7 6-1 6-4 victory over Ugo Humbert. His live ranking is getting close to top 10 territory (I think today's win puts Shapo at #12)

Denis will play Grigor Dimitrov in the quarter-finals as Dimitrov eliminated the young Italian Jannik Sinner in three sets earlier today.
