Madison Keys vs Nikola Bartunkova prediction
Madison Keys hit back to see off Peyton Stearns and reach the third round in Rome.
The 17th seed edged her compatriot 4-6 6-4 6-2 to set up a clash with lucky loser Nikola Bartunkova.
The 20-year-old Czech despatched wildcard Tyra Grant in three but is relatively undercooked on clay in main draws and this should be more routine for Maddy this time around.
