The Internaznioli BNL D’Italia, otherwise known as the Rome Masters, draw is out, and here are the results. Rafael Nadal is seeded No.5 and has a bye in the first round. In the second round, our champ will play either Philipp Kohlschreiber or a qualifier.

Rafa could face Novak Djokovic in the quarter-finals as he hunts his eighth Rome Masters title. He is in the same side of the draw at the Italian Open as Roger Federer.

Projected quarterfinals:

• Novak Djokovic vs Rafael Nadal
• Roger Federer vs Kei Nishikori
• Jo-Wilfried Tsonga vs Stan Wawrinka
• Tomas Berdych vs Andy Murray

Rafa’s potential route to the final:

• Round 1: Bye
• Round 2: Philipp Kohlschreiber 
• Round 16: Milos Raonic or Nick Kyrgios
• Quarter Final: Novak Djokovic
• Semi Final: Roger Federer 
• Final: Andy Murray

This will be Rafa’s final clay court tournament before the French Open.

GOOD LUCK & VAMOS RAFA!
