His next challenge will be against compatriot Andrea Pellegrino at the ATP Rome Masters. All eight round of 16 clashes are scheduled for Tuesday.

Despite two matches in Rome, Khachanov has not played near his best yet during the clay-court swing. The Croatian will need to effectively soak up pressure from Khachanov\u2019s powerful hitting in the rallies. Expect a close battle, but Prizmic is narrowly favored.<br \/>Prediction: Prizmic in 2<\/p>\n<p>Learner Tien vs Rafael Jodar<\/p>\n<p>Head-to-head: Jodar 1-0 Tien<\/p>\n<p>This promises to be a fascinating battle between two rising stars. On hard or grass courts, Tien would be the more likely winner. <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2026\/04\/23\/rafael-jodar-madrid\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Jodar\u2019s outstanding results<\/a> during the clay-court swing make this a significant challenge for his American opponent. The 19-year-old plays with relentless intensity in the rallies, and it will likely prove too much for Tien.<br \/>Prediction: Jodar in 2<\/p>\n<p>Hamad Medjedovic vs Martin Landaluce<\/p>\n<p>Head-to-head: First meeting<\/p>\n<p>Both men strike the ball cleanly, although Medjedovic\u2019s aggressive game is slightly more devastating when it clicks. Landaluce can absorb pressure well, as he showed against Marin Cilic during their Round of 64 encounter. However, Medjedovic\u2019s formidable hitting and Landaluce\u2019s status as a lucky loser whose unexpected run will likely end soon mean the Serbian is backed to win.<br \/>Prediction: Medjedovic in 3<\/p>\n<p>Jannik Sinner vs Andrea Pellegrino<\/p>\n<p>Head-to-head: First meeting<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.atptour.com\/en\/players\/andrea-pellegrino\/ph64\/overview\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Pellegrino<\/a> defeating his fellow Italian would be the biggest upset of 2026. Sinner has not lost a Masters 1000 match since October, and Pellegrino had never won a main draw contest at that level until this tournament. The lower-ranked man can enjoy the occasion without any pressure or expectations, but his chances of prevailing are minute.<br \/>Prediction: Sinner in 2<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo Credit: Susan Mullane-USA TODAY Sports<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jannik Sinner is four victories away from securing an unprecedented sixth consecutive Masters 1000 title.
