The ATP 500 Barcelona Open continues with its round of 16 matches on the fourth day of competition. Rafael Nadal's elimination at the hands of Alex De Minaur (4th seed) ensured that there will be a new champion of the tournament, with Casper Ruud (3rd seed) and Stefanos Tsitsipas (5th seed) as the main favorites still in contention.
The day will kick off on the ‘Court Rafa Nadal’ with the Spanish players in action. First up will be wildcard Roberto Bautista Agut, who has had a strong start to the clay swing, facing Cameron Norrie, followed by Alejandro Davidovich Fokina taking on Dusan Lajovic.
On the same central court during the afternoon, the finalists from the Monte-Carlo Masters just a week ago will appear. First, Casper Ruud will face Australian Jordan Thompson, followed by local favorite Roberto Carballes Baena challenging 3-times Barcelona Open finalist Stefanos Tsitsipas.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
