Tsitsipas overcame 2019 titlist Fabio Fognini, Laslo Djere and second seed Alexander Zverev in straight sets, but survived a major scare in the quarter-finals against Diego Schwartzman, rallying from 0-4 in the third set to advance.

Tsitsipas got off to a positive start in the summit clash of the Monte Carlo Masters on Sunday as he won the first set 6-4 against Spain’s Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.
Tsistipas started the game slowly as Fokina initially challenged the Greek after breaking him early to take a 2-1 lead. The World No.5 however kept his cool and made a comeback immediately by breaking Fokina. He then began dominating as he broke Fokina two more times before sealing the first set 6-4.
