The 2025 Italian Open will host its men’s singles semifinal on Friday (May 16), with top seed Jannik Sinner still in contention for a maiden win. In fact, the tournament will crown a new champion as none of the four semifinalists have ever made it to the summit clash of the tournament.
Sinner, leading the hope of the home fans, will take on Tommy Paul in the evening session on Campo Centrale. Both players were straight-set winners in their respective semifinal encounters against Casper Ruud and Hubert Hurkacz.
Before they take to court, however, Carlos Alcaraz will lock horns with another Italian in the form of Lorenzo Musetti. Musetti has been in great form of late and will be playing in consecutive semifinals. Alcaraz, too, has played well on clay, having lifted the title in Monte Carlo and made the final in Barcelona.
Jasmine Paolini and Sara Errani, meanwhile, will also be in action in doubles, further raising the stakes for the home fans. Now let’s take a look at the schedule on some of the bigger courts on Day 11 of the 2025 Italian Open:
