INTERNAZIONALI BNL D'ITALIA: DAY 2 MEDIA NOTES Monday, May 9, 2016 Foro Italico, Rome, Italy | May 8-15, 2016 Draw: S-56, D-24 | Prize Money: €3,748,925 | Surface: Clay ATP World Tour Info Tournament Info ATP PR & Marketing www.ATPWorldTour.com www.internazionalibnlditalia.com Edward La Cava: [email protected] Twitter: @ATPWorldTour Twitter: @InteBNLdItalia / #IBI16 Fabienne Benoit: [email protected] Facebook: ATP World Tour Facebook: Internazionali BNL d’Italia Press Room: TBD SEEDS RAONIC, GASQUET, THIEM, MONFILS, FIVE ITALIANS IN ACTION DAY 2 PREVIEW: There are 12 singles matches on Monday’s schedule at the Internazionali BNL d’Italia with No. 10 seed Milos Raonic, No. 11 Richard Gasquet, No. 13 Dominic Thiem and No. 14 Gael Monfils leading the way. In addition, five Italians, including the top two of Fabio Fognini and Andreas Seppi, are in action. Leading off on Center Court is Raonic against wild card Marco Cecchinato in a second-time meeting. Last month, Raonic won 63 75 in the first round at ATP Masters 1000 Monte-Carlo. The 25-year-old Canadian is the only player this season to reach the quarter-finals or better in all four ATP Masters 1000 tournaments. He is off to a 23-5 start this season and back in the Top 10 Emirates ATP Rankings for the second week in a row for the first time since last October. The No. 119th-ranked Cecchinato is facing his first Top 10 opponent in his career. In the fhird match on, Fognini brings a 4-2 career record (3-1 on clay) against Spaniard Guillermo Garcia-Lopez. Fognini is making his ninth tournament appearance (5-8 record) and his best result is the 3R last year. Garcia-Lopez looks to even his season match record (12-13). His best showing in Rome is also the 3R in 2010 and last year. In the evening session, Next Generation teenage star Alexander Zverev and Grigor Dimitrov square off for the third time (tied 1-1), the first on clay. Zverev won the last meeting in the 2R at ATP Masters 1000 Indian Wells in March. The 19-year-old German, who is making his Rome debut, enters with a 16-11 match record on the season. Dimitrov, a semi-finalist in Rome two years ago, is ranked No. 35 this week, the first time he’s been out of the Top 30 Emirates ATP Rankings since Aug. 5, 2013 at No. 31. On Grandstand, Frenchmen Gasquet and Julien Benneteau meet for the fourth time on the ATP World Tour, the first on clay. Gasquet won all three previous meetings, winning six of seven sets. In the next match on, another Next Generation member, 21-year-old Nick Kyrgios, takes on wild card Salvatore Caruso, who is playing in his first career ATP World Tour main draw. Kyrgios has reached the quarter-finals or better in five of seven tournaments this season and he is looking for his 20th match win of the year (19-6). In the final match on is Thomaz Bellucci and Monfils, who owns a 3-0 record against the Brazilian. Monfils has rallied to win their last two meetings after dropping the opening set. Monfils, a semi-finalist in Rome in his 2006 debut, is playing here for the first time since 2012. On Pietrangeli, the third match on features Seppi and Canadian No. 2 Vasek Pospisil. They have split their previous four hard court meetings. Seppi is playing in his first tournament since ATP Masters 1000 Miami in March. In the next match on, No. 1 Ukrainian Alexandr Dolgopolov and Thiem meet for the third time (tied 1-1), the first on clay. The 22-year-old Thiem is aiming for his 30th match win of the season (29-9). Last year he didn’t win his 30th match until the 1R at the US Open in late August.

Both will aim to use home advantage to have a good run here this year – Monfils will look for a repeat of his 2008 performance when he reached the semifinals, while Pouille will hope to emulate the form he displayed in reaching the last 4 at the Australian Open in January to impress the home fans in Paris. • Monte Carlo champion Fabio Fognini takes on fellow Italian Andreas Seppi in the first match on Court Simonne Mathieu today. It will be the 8th all-Italian meeting at Roland Garros in the Open Era and the 16th all-Italian clash at the Grand Slams in the Open Era. The pair are tied at 4 wins apiece in their previous Tour-level match-ups, but Seppi has not beaten his compatriot and Davis Cup teammate since 2010 and will have to put in an inspired performance if he is to defeat to the No.

All four men are attempting to reach their first Acapulco final, though Dolgopolov has come close before. The Ukrainian shot-maker was one set from the championship match in 2011 and 2014 before settling for semi-final finishes. Dolgopolov is 6-3 against Tomic in their FedEx ATP Head 2 Head history, which dates back to the first match of the 2010 ATP World Tour season in Brisbane, when Dolgopolov was a 21-year-old qualifier and Tomic was a 17-year-old wild card. Dolgopolov won that match 6-4, 6-4 and also defeated Tomic 6-4, 6-1 in their most recent encounter last August at ATP Masters 1000 Cincinnati. Something’s got to give in Friday’s second semi-final. Both Thiem and Querrey have reached the semis or better of three ATP events in as many weeks.
