Sinner
As in 2019, two Italians still in the race, at that time were Fognini and Sonego
In Monte Carlo it is the day of the round of 16, and as in 2019 the Italians still in the race are two. Then it was up to Fabio Fognini, who ended up winning the tournament, and to Lorenzo Sonego, who stopped in the quarters.
Today it’s up to Jannik Sinner and Lorenzo Musetti, respectively against Andrey Rublev and Diego Schwartzman.
The first to take the field (not before 12) on the Court des Princes will be Lorenzo, who already defeated the Argentine twelve months ago in the first round on Acapulco hard, the Italian’s first victory over a top 10 (Schwartzman was n.9) and the only precedent between the two. Today ‘El Peque’, 29, is number 16 Atp, but was number 8 in 2020 and on clay boasts a semi-final in Paris and a final in Rome.
The Russian Rublev, 24 years old, number 8 Atp, Sinner’s opponent in the fourth match of the day starting at 11 on the center named after Ranieri III, is the finalist of the last edition, when he was overtaken by Stefanos Tsitsipas. Between the two there are two precedents: in 2020 Rublev won, but due to retirement at 2-1 in the first set, in the round of 16 in Vienna, last year it was Sinner who won in the quarter-finals in Barcelona, where he plays. on earth as in the Principality.
