The 2025 Internazionali BNL d&rsquo;Italia has entertained fans around the world to the fullest, and will continue to do so when the WTA&rsquo;s four premier stars take to court on Thursday. While three out of the four remaining players are within the Top-8 seeds, an unseeded surprise looks to spin her web and reach the summit clash.

She will be up against 23-year-old American Peyton Stearns, who has won three consecutive deciding set tiebreaks to reach this stage. Paolini is also into the women&rsquo;s doubles semifinal, meaning that a Roman double is still on the cards.<\/p><p>The head to head between Paolini and Stearns is currently 0-0; they are yet to face one another on the WTA Tour. Ranked No. 5 in the world at the moment, the Italian is defending runner-up points at Roland Garros in 2025.
