He will compete for a spot in the semi-finals against either China&#8217;s Zhang Zhizhen or qualifier Thiago Monteiro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike his match against Djokovic, Tabilo faced a tougher challenge against 18th-ranked Khachanov, known for his six hard-court tour titles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/24hscore.net\/news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tennis Result<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"und\" dir=\"ltr\">Some spicy matchups today ?\ufe0f<br><br>T.

Zverev will face unseeded Nuno Borges in the men&#8217;s last 16 for a quarter-final clash with Taylor Fritz, who defeated eighth seed Grigor Dimitrov 6-2, 6-7 (11\/13), 6-1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Top seed Swiatek, aiming for her third Rome title, will play American Madison Keys in the quarter-finals as she prepares for her French Open title defense later this month. The three-time Roland Garros champion is yet to drop a set and recently won her third WTA 1000 title of the season in Madrid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The winner of Swiatek&#8217;s match will face either Zheng Qinwen or third seed Coco Gauff, who play in the final match of the day on center court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the men&#8217;s draw, Daniil Medvedev will face Tommy Paul after a challenging match against qualifier Hamad Medjedovic on Monday. Medvedev has a strong chance to retain his title in a tournament now missing several top players, including Holger Rune, Jannik Sinner, and Carlos Alcaraz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sixth seed and reigning Monte Carlo champion Stefanos Tsitsipas is also aiming to capitalize on the open field as he takes on Australia&#8217;s Alex de Minaur.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alejandro Tabilo (26) continued his impressive run at the Rome Open by defeating Karen Khachanov (27) 7-6(5), 7-6(10) on Tuesday, securing a place in the quarter-finals.
