The ninth day of main draw action at the Italian Open on Wednesday will feature two men's singles, two women's singles and as many men's doubles and women's doubles quarterfinals.
Top seed Novak Djokovic will continue his title defense as he eyes a seventh Rome title. The other last-eight clash in the men's draw will feature last year's semifinalist and fourth seed Casper Ruud, who will look to reach the semifinals at the Foro Italico for the third time.
In the women's singles, top seed Iga Swiatek will continue her title defense as she eyes her first claycourt WTA 1000 title of the season after getting thwarted in the Madrid final a fortnight ago. Twentieth seed Jelena Ostapenko will feature in the other quarterfinal.
Trending
Ostapenko will be on double duty, as she will return to court with her partner Lyudmyla Kichenok for the women's doubles quarterfinal. Top seeds Coco Gauff and Jessica Pegula will also be in action.
