Play officially done for the day due to rain in Rome. They will have a roof soon but not yet.
Not a huge deal in this 12 day format to get rain, back when this was a week, a single day of rain cause players to have to play 2 matches in a day, not an issue anymore

2 remaining matches in progress before the rain set in again, then finally cancelled for the day

Basiletti leading Tomljanovic 5-3 1st set
Waltert leading Starodubtseva 75 46 4-1

Both matches have been re-scheduled for tomorrow
