The Internazionali BNL d'Italia, also known as the Italian Open, is set to take place from May 6 to May 18. This prestigious clay-court tournament is a combined ATP Masters 1000 and WTA 1000 event that attracts the world's top tennis talent.

The Italian Open has been serving up clay-court drama since 1930. Held in Rome’s stunning Foro Italico, where ancient statues watch over modern champions, it's where legends like Nadal, Djokovic, and Serena have slid, spun, and smashed their way to glory.

One fun fact? In 2023, the tournament expanded to 12 days, similar to the Indian Wells and Madrid Open tournaments. That way, fans got even more time to rally behind their favorites!
