Last year's winner Jannik Sinner lost a set for the second time in this tournament in the round of 16 against Holger Rune from Denmark. Despite this, the South Tyrolean won 6:3, 3:6, 6:3, 6:2 against the number 13-ranked Dane Holger Rune. The match had to be interrupted in the meantime due to a defect at the net.

Sinner had already won in four sets in the 2nd round against the Australian wildcard recipient Tristan Schoolkate. The Italian's quarter-final opponent will be the Australian Alex de Minaur, the tournament's No. 8, or the American Alex Michelsen.
