2024 Monte-Carlo Masters Wednesday SCHEDULE and PREVIEW featuring Stefanos TSITSIPAS, Holger RUNE, and Jannik SINNER - KORDA
ATP
The
schedule has been confirmed ahead of Wednesday at the 2024 Monte-Carlo Masters,
with Jannik Sinner ready for his debut. Our preview looks ahead to the third
day at the Monte-Carlo Masters as the latest ATP 1000 continues, with Stefanos
Tsitsipas, Holger Rune, and Daniil Medvedev also involved.
Jannik Sinner aims to maintain his streak in the clay swing
World No. 2
Jannik Sinner will headline a stellar match as the second seed of the
tournament. The Italian is currently in the best form of his career with a 22-1
record in 2024. Although Sinner has yet to fully showcase his talents on clay,
he demonstrated excellent form in Monte-Carlo last year, reaching the
tournament's semifinals.
The clay
swing provides the perfect opportunity for Sinner to close the gap with Novak
Djokovic for the world No. 1 spot. This week, he defends 360 out of the 585
points available throughout the clay swing, while Djokovic defends a total of
2315 points and Carlos Alcaraz 2265. Sinner will face the always dangerous
Sebastian Korda.

The day
will also see other seeded players making their debut, including defending
champion Andrey Rublev, who is the 6th seed. He faces a tough challenge in his
title defense, starting off against Alexei Popyrin.
Stefanos
Tsitsipas (12th seed) will play his second-round match against clay specialist
Tomas Martin Etcheverry, who emerged victorious in the South American clash against
Nicolas Jarry. Holger Rune takes on Indian tennis player Sumit Nagal.
The 4th
seed Daniil Medvedev returns to clay, this time facing Gael Monfils, a surface
that he has admitted doesn't suit him well. However, he managed to clinch the
title at the Masters 1000 Italian Open in 2023 despite his challenges on clay.
The day
will also feature Casper Ruud making his debut against Chilean Alejandro
Tabilo, Alex de Minaur facing Tallon Griekspoor, and recent Miami Open finalist
Grigor Dimitrov taking on Miomir Kecmanovic.

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Having spent weeks and weeks through the years on tour, I can say with confidence that Conchita was (is) one of the very few who realize the surprising level of maturity (and sometimes lack of) which Mirra seems to have developed in such a demanding adult world of Pro-Tennis. While at the same time reminding herself (Conchita, that is) that Mirra is still young and developing mentally and physically. The general public may forget at times, or not at all realize, these modern era young athletes do not have a 'normal' Youth. It's a major sacrifice, among countless sacrifices, these athletes must make. People who blow-off that fact are ignorant and unfair when they blurt out, "They choose fame so they have to put up with the intrusions on their lives". No, they do not.mandoist05-11-2026
- Okay... someone with a camera was EAVESDROPPING on a private conversation. Shouldn't that be the point of discussion here? Regardless of the sensationalist crap by media, Pegula (and anyone) has a right to an opinion. There used to be an expectation that private conversations were respected, regardless of 'stardom' and whatever other defensive excuses media tries to shove in our faces. Boo-hoo if feelings are hurt. BTW: Having been employed at various tourney venues, etc., I can't tell you how nasty and offensive players can be when discussing their opponents and colleagues... in "private". Well, I could, but won't. I also challenge anyone to deny what Jessica said is false.mandoist05-11-2026
