Ideas on the Draw

With all of the fanfare surrounding Jannik Sinner as the very best participant on this planet, you’d be forgiven for forgetting that Novak Djokovic continues to be world primary and enters Monte Carlo as the highest seed.

Monte Carlo hasn’t been one in all Djokovic’s greatest tournaments, however he’s nonetheless gained it twice. He’ll start towards Roman Safiullin or a qualifier within the second spherical.

Final 12 months, the Serb got here a cropper to Lorenzo Musetti, and the 2 might face off once more this 12 months within the third spherical ought to the Italian overcome thirteenth seed Taylor Fritz in his opening spherical and both Arthur Fils or Adrian Mannarino within the second.

Defending champion Andrey Rublev is Novak’s seeded quarter-final opponent. The Russian begins towards the heavy-hitting Alexei Popyrin, which isn’t straightforward. He’ll have to up his recreation from the Sunshine Double, which yielded only one win.

Djokovic’s Path to the Ultimate

Carlos Alcaraz is making simply his second look on the Monte Carlo Nation Membership. He begins towards Felix Auger-Aliassime or a qualifier.

That might have sounded tough just a few years again, however Felix has been taking retrograde steps since final season.

The Spaniard is seeded to satisfy Dubai champion Ugo Humbert within the third spherical and Casper Ruud within the quarter-finals earlier than a possible showdown with Djokovic.

I believe if Alcaraz performs much less highlight-reel mode tennis and as a substitute mixes in a extra Nadal-like mentality, he’ll have a dominant clay-court swing this summer time and can be capable to shut the hole to Sinner, who’s considerably unproven on la Terre battue.

Alcaraz’s Path to the Ultimate

Within the backside half of the draw, Jannik Sinner is the 2nd seed, and he’ll be trying to proceed his unbelievable season with titles in Melbourne, Rotterdam and Miami which have seen him rack up a 22-1 Win/Loss document.

Sinner’s opening match is towards both 2022 finalist Alejandro Davidovich Fokina or Sebastian Korda. Within the third spherical, he’s slated to satisfy the sixteenth seed, Alexander Bublik, and will doubtlessly face final 12 months’s finalist, Holger Rune, within the quarter-finals.

Rune will start his match towards both Matteo Arnaldi or Emil Ruusuvuori. Each are succesful foes on their day, with Arnaldi significantly harmful on the clay.

Sinner’s Path To the Ultimate

Daniil Medvedev, the fourth seed, and Alexander Zverev, the fifth seed, might doubtlessly face Sinner within the semi-finals.

Within the second spherical, Medvedev will face both Jordan Thompson or the French wildcard, Gael Monfils, whereas Zverev will face Daniel Evans or Sebastian Ofner. Evans can have a troublesome opening spherical, as Ofner has a pedigree on clay and might be the slight favorite.

Stefanos Tsitsipas, a two-time Monte-Carlo champion and the twelfth seed, can be on this half and can begin his match towards Laslo Djere.

Given his latest kind and dropping outdoors the highest 10, the clay season seems to be make-or-break, so it will likely be value watching him carefully.
