Speaking before the tournament, Sinner said that he didn't play at the Rome Masters on his first return to beat anyone, he was just trying to win the next match. However, Sinner didn't leave much chance for his opponent in this match, hitting 21 winning points and winning in straight sets, which is also his 22nd consecutive cross-season tour victory since last year's Shanghai Rolex Masters.

Speaking after the match, Sinner said: "I love the competition and miss the feedback I get in the official game. I hope to play one or two more games here and see where I am and that's my main goal. Sinner will next face lucky loser Frenkie de Jong, who swept past Davidovich Fokina 6-0, 6-2.
