Overview

  • Jannik Sinner beat Adrian Mannarino 6-4, 7-6(4) after a nearly three-hour rain delay, extending his hard-court winning streak to 24 matches and reinforcing his title defence.
  • Carlos Alcaraz defeated lucky loser Luca Nardi 6-1, 6-4 to set up a quarter-final clash with Andrey Rublev and engaged in a dispute with chair umpire Greg Allensworth over a sponsor logo on his water bottles.
  • Aryna Sabalenka recorded her 50th win of 2025 with a 6-1, 7-5 victory over Jessica Bouzas Maneiro, maintaining her lead in annual match victories.
  • Qualifier Terence Atmane stunned fourth seed Taylor Fritz 3-6, 7-5, 6-3 to reach his first ATP Masters 1000 quarter-final.
