Pellegrino Still Searching for Top 100
Andrea Pellegrino has played nine matches on the ATP Tour, going 4-5 with two of those victories coming this year.
The 29-year-old beat Alex Barrena and Francisco Comesana in Santiago before a quarter-final defeat to Luciano Darderi.
The World No.155 failed to qualify in Marrakech, Monte Carlo and Madrid but broke through in Rome. He thrashed Hugo Gaston 6-1 6-3 before a 6-3 2-6 6-2 victory over Martin Landaluce.
Nardi in Poor Form
Luca Nardi started 2026 with three straight defeats. He went to the Manama Challenger and lost the final to Kyrian Jacquet.
The Italian beat Flavio Cobolli to reach the quarter-finals in Montpellier where he lost in straight sets to World No.160 Martin Damm. He then had some shocking results, beaten by World No.402 Arthur Bouquier in Pau and World No.396 Trevor Svajda in Indian Wells.
Nardi comes to Rome after four straight defeats that has seen him drop to 151 in the rankings. He was last seen at the Monza Challenger where he was beaten by Valentin Royer in the first round.
Verdict
Andrea Pellegrino has never been in the Top 100 and Luca Nardi recently dropped out of the Top 150. These players can’t be trusted to win, a 3 set clash on the cards in Rome.
