Sinner faces Tommy Paul on Friday and has yet to drop a set at the ATP Masters 1000 event. The Italian leads the American 3-1 in the pair's Lexus ATP Head2Head series and holds a perfect 11-0 record on the season according to Infosys ATP Win/Loss Index.

The 2024 Nitto ATP Finals champion is chasing his fifth Masters 1000 title in Rome and will then head to Roland Garros, where he will aim to capture a third major title.

The ATP 500 clay-court event in Hamburg begins on Sunday and runs until 24 May. Germany's Zverev will lead the field as the top seed after accepting a wild card.

Zverev has fond memories in Hamburg, having lifted the title on home soil in 2023. The 28-year-old is 24-9 on the year, highlighted by his title run in Munich.
