Joao Fonseca enters the scene for the first of many in Rome.
While Italian veteran Fabio Fognini plays his last, he has announced.
It would be poignant if they played each other, but the draw gods decided otherwise.
Plenty more Italians on the sked: Arnaldi, Cina, Nardi, Cobolli, Bellucci, Gigante. There’s a hothouse somewhere where they’re producing them.
