Novak Djokovic was the defending champion, but lost to Rune in the quarterfinals.[2] Since Rafael Nadal withdrew before the tournament started, this marked the first time since 2004 that neither Djokovic nor Nadal contested the Rome final.

By playing his second-round match, Carlos Alcaraz reclaimed the ATP No. 1 singles ranking from Djokovic.[3]
