Bucharest
\n Rain all but wipes out Thursday\u2019s R2 action in Bucharest<\/p>\n

Eight singles matches, including all four QFs, on Friday schedule at ATP 250<\/p>\n

April 02, 2026<\/p>\n

\"Rain<\/p>\n

ATP 250 Tiriac Open<\/p>\n

Rain has delayed Thursday’s schedule in Bucharest.
\n By ATP Staff<\/p>\n

Persistent rain reduced Thursday\u2019s action at the Tiriac Open presented by UniCredit Bank<\/a> to just two completed games. <\/p>\n

Four second-round singles matches and three doubles matches were on the original schedule in Bucharest, but only one of those encounters even began. Fabian Marozsan<\/a> and Stefanos Sakellaridis<\/a> began their maiden Lexus ATP Head2Head meeting at around 6 p.m. local time (EEST) but were soon off court again as the rain returned with third seed Marozsan serving at 1-1, 40\/40. <\/p>\n

The delays mean there will be a bumper day of action on Friday in Bucharest. The four remaining second-round singles matches, including Marozsan against Sakellaridis, are scheduled to be played, as are all four quarter-finals. Second seed Adrian Mannarino<\/a> and fifth seed Sebastian Baez<\/a> are among those who may have to play two matches in a day at the clay ATP 250. See the full order of play below. <\/p>\n
