Men’s Singles: Favorites to Win the 2023 Rome Masters
- Fresh from his successful title defense at the Madrid Open, Carlos Alcaraz has the No. 1 ranking firmly in his mind. The 20-year-old Spaniard could reclaim it from Novak Djokovic should he win his first match in the Italian capital.
- Alcaraz didn’t play in this tournament last year, so he’ll be set for his debut appearance. He is 29-2 for the season, and he’s made five finals from the six tournaments he has played in 2023.
- Who will stop Alcaraz?
- Djokovic could be who, depending on his fitness and the nature of his elbow injury. Djokovic is the second most successful player in Rome having won this event six times including last year’s edition against the odds.
- The Serbian star hasn’t played since his shocking quarterfinal defeat in Banja Luka, thereafter withdrawing from the Madrid Open. A fit Djokovic is, without a doubt, the big threat to Alcaraz’s chances of lifting his fifth title of the season.
