Some breaking news,
After the results of the tests carried out today, we have decided that the most prudent thing is to be cautious and not participate in Rome or Roland Garros. While we wait to access the evolution to decide when we will return to the court.This is a difficult time for me, but I am sure we will come out stronger.

From Carlos Alcaraz on social media ( I have also put this sad news on the ATP news)

Cilic had food poisoning yesterday and could not recover in time and Fonseca got a walkover to the next round

WC Jodar wins the 1st set 63 over de Minaur, as I mentioned yesterday I havent been impressed with de Minaur's form the last couple of months, not surprised Jodar wining the 1st set. BTW Jodar is from Madrid and understands the playing conditions well.
On his 4th MP WC Jodar much to the delight of the fans, defeats the No 5th seed de Minaur 63 61
This is Jodar's fist Top Ten win

First meeting between Jodar and Fonseca, it will happen on Sunday, in 3rd round

Jodar vs. Fonseca is a nice popcorn match of teenagers. Jodar has probably climbed up the ranks of prospects more than anyone this year. Fonzie on the cusp of taking a step forward, but seems to be putting it off. Mensik and Tien are doing fine, but neither is "wowing."

Jannik after his match went and watched Jodar's match against de Minaur,, Jodar great striker of the ball off both wings and for a tall player moves well and growing up in Madrid understands the playing conditions well
