Altmaier converted his first match point after 2:37 hours. The world number 65. now meets the American Frances Tiafoe.
After a bye, Alexander Zverev only intervened in the second round. Jan-Lennard Struff, who surprisingly reached the final at the Masters 1000 event in Madrid last week, will not start in Rome to recover with a view to the French Open, which begins on May 28th.
