2024 Monte-Carlo Masters Thursday SCHEDULE and PREVIEW featuring DJOKOVIC-MUSETTI, ZVEREV-TSITSIPAS and SINNER in action

The schedule has been confirmed ahead of the last 16 matches this Thursday (April 11th) at the 2024 Monte-Carlo Masters, with the top seeds still in competition. Novak Djokovic will have a rematch of his match against Lorenzo Musetti in 2023 at the same tournament, where the Italian surprised by defeating the world No. 1 with a score of 4-6, 7-5, 6-4. This time, Nole will seek to go deeper in Monte-Carlo, as he hasn't gone beyond the third round since 2019.

World No. 2 Jannik Sinner will also be in action, facing the German Jan-Lennard Struff to maintain the excellent form he has already shown on clay. Struff won't be an easy challenge, as he is a clay specialist who reached the final of the Masters 1000 Madrid Open a year ago and defeated Sebastian Baez (the leader in clay victories in 2024) in the first round.

The day will feature an exciting duel between the 2-time champion Stefanos Tsitsipas (2021, 2022) and world No. 5 Alexander Zverev, with Tsitsipas holding a favorable 9-5 head-to-head record (4-1 on clay). 3-time Grand Slam finalist Casper Ruud will play against Hubert Hurkacz, who comes off winning the Estoril Open last week and maintains a streak of 6 consecutive victories on clay.
