The 2025 Internazionali BNL d’Italia returns to the Foro Italico for its 82nd edition of this prestigious clay-court event, setting the stage for players to fine-tune their games ahead of Roland Garros.
Things have been pretty fun on the road to Roland-Garros and the clay-court Grand Slam as it continues its tour through Europe’s capital cities, this time stopping at the Foro Italico for the ATP Masters 1000 and WTA 1000 tournament.
In the Internazionali BNL d’Italia, the headline act sees the return of Italian superstar and men’s world number one Jannik Sinner to the fold. He has just completed his three-month suspension from tennis.
With the defending champion Jannik Sinner being the top seed and Novak Djokovic withdrawn from the competition, we believe this is bound to be quite an interesting event.
The women’s singles draw also features a top-10 Italian carrying the flag: Jasmine Paolini, World no. 5 and Paris 2024 gold medallist.
Currently sitting 16th in the calendar-year rankings, we are eager to see her return to the court. She is the defending doubles champion alongside Olympic champion partner Sara Errani.
It is time to dive a little deeper into the event and the competitors now:

2025 Internazionali BNL d’Italia ATP Betting Picks
Jannik Sinner, the Italian prodigy, will open against either Lorenzo Musetti or Mariano Navone. All eyes will be on his form as he seeks momentum before Roland Garros and the backing of a home crowd could push him deep into the draw.
The Spaniard, Carlos Alcaraz, lands on the opposite side of the draw from Sinner. He remains a top contender on clay despite the minor hip issue.
The 2023 Champion cannot be ignored. Despite clay courts not being Daniil Medvedev’s strong point, it could see him pushing in the tournament if he manages to survive the early rounds.

Three strong contenders are Iga Swiatek, Aryna Sabalenka and Elina Svitolina.
A two-time Rome champion, Swiatek enters as the firm favorite. Her draw appears favorable, and her Clay-court dominance makes her the player to beat. On the other hand, Sabalenka, with her aggressive baseline game, has shown significant improvement on slower surfaces.
