Nadal, Federer, Djokovic, Zverev, Thiem: the top five of the ATP rankings are present at the Rome Masters 1000, the most important tennis tournament held in Italy. From Sunday 12 May to Sunday 19 May Rome will be the capital of world tennis and for many fans it will be an opportunity to see their favorite tennis players. In addition, after a few years, Roger Federer will be back to play at the Internazionali di Tennis.
Italy will be in Rome with a rather large troop: there are seven Italian tennis players in the main draw, with Fognini leading the Italian hopes. The Ligurian player wants to crown the dream of winning in front of his own public, but on his way he will have to face Thiem, one of the best clay court players of 2019. The Italian hopes are also pinned on Berrettini, the new tennis star of the Bel Paese. The Italian tennis player is back from two finals on clay and playing at home does not want to disappoint his fans. In addition, there is great curiosity to see Jannik Sinner play, a tennis player from Alto Adige who at only 17 years old received a wild card to land in the main draw of a Masters 1000.

Masters 1000 Rome: the Italians competing
There will be seven Italians competing at the Internazionali di tennis di Roma 2019: Fognini, Cecchinato, Berrettini, Seppi, Sonego, Sinner, Basso. There is also the possibility that an eighth Italian will be added if Filippo Baldi manages to pass the third round of the qualifiers: he will have to beat the American Fritz.
Fognini will be the flag bearer of the Italian expedition in Rome. The Ligurian tennis player comes from the victory at the Masters 1000 of Montecarlo and is looking for the tenth position in the World ranking. But he will have a rather complicated draw. The other Italian hope is Berrettini, back from two finals (with one victory) in the last tournaments played on clay. He will have to find himself a little bit in Cecchinato, always in the top 20 of the world ranking, but in difficulty in the last week.
For Sinner, instead, it will be the first experience in a Masters 1000. The young South Tyrolean is only 17 years old, but he is already in the top 300 positions in the ATP rankings.
