ROME, October 1, 2015

Rain has been fallen all night long as well as the entire Thursday in Italy’s capital. Consequently, all second round matches of the top half of the draw at the BFD Energy Challenger had to be postponed to Friday.

ATP Challenger Supervisor Michel Willems announced that matches will start at 10:30am when top-seed Federico Delbonis will take on Italian wild card Giulio de Meo, third favourite Dusan Lajovic faces Matteo Viola, the all-Spanish-affair between Javier Martí and Albert Montanes will be played as well as the encounter between Pere Riba and Uladzimir Ignatik in order to find the men for the remaining four open spots in the quarterfinals.
