Italian Open match delayed by smoke from Inter Milan's Coppa Italia celebrations

A quarter-final match at the Italian Open tennis tournament in Rome was halted for almost 20 minutes due to thick smoke from fireworks celebrating Inter Milan's Coppa Italia victory at the neighbouring Stadio Olimpico. Italy's Luciano Darderi and Spain's Rafael Jodar, 19, were forced to pause their match at Foro Italico, with Jodar leading 6-5 in the opening set when the smoke descended. Darderi ultimately won the match, advancing to the semi-finals after 2am local time.
