The draw for the Rome Masters 1000 has just taken place in the Italian capital. The identity of Rafael Nadal's first-round opponent was one of the most eagerly awaited outcomes. And it's a player from the qualifiers, whose first round takes place this Monday, who will face the Spanish champion.
We'll have to wait until Tuesday and the end of the qualifying rounds to find out more. It's worth noting that the ten-time winner of the event (2005, 2006, 2007, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2018, 2019, 2021) could meet Hubert Hurkacz, world no. 9, in the 2nd round.
