Altmaier Finds Confidence Again
Daniel Altmaier moved into the second round after a comeback win over Zhizhen Zhang, 4-6, 7-6, 6-4. He trailed by a break twice in the second set and also saved two match points before turning the match around.
The German endured a difficult stretch earlier this season, suffering eight consecutive opening-round defeats at tour-level events. To regain confidence, he dropped down to Challenger level and reached the final in Naples.
That result helped spark some improvement, as he followed it with a quarterfinal run in Bucharest. Since then, his performances have looked more competitive despite inconsistent results.
Altmaier will soon have fourth-round points to defend at the French Open, making this stretch important for his ranking. A few more wins in Rome could provide a timely boost in confidence and momentum.

Zverev Continues Strong Season Form
Alexander Zverev finished runner-up in Madrid after a heavy 6-1, 6-2 loss to Jannik Sinner. It marked his ninth straight defeat against the Italian and his third finals loss in that matchup.
The German has been one of the more consistent players on tour in recent years, but he has struggled against elite opposition in the latter stages of tournaments. He has lost nine of his last 11 semifinals and failed to win titles in six of his last eight finals.
Zverev has compiled a strong 26-8 record this season, reaching at least the semifinals six times. His only early-round defeat came against Miomir Kecmanovic in the second round in Acapulco.
The 29-year-old heads into Rome with an impressive 8-1 record in opening-round matches at the Italian Open. He has also lifted the title twice, in 2017 and 2024.

Verdict
Daniel Altmaier has enough quality on clay to keep this matchup competitive for long periods. Zverev should still come through, but over 19.5 games and Altmaier +5.5 games both fit a match that is unlikely to be one-sided.
