Carlos Alcaraz is already preparing for the start of the clay court season. After his brilliant victory at the Masters 1000 in Miami, the Murcian tennis player will face the Montecarlo Masters 1000 next weeka great opportunity to start making ground in clay and position himself as a candidate for the title at Roland Garros.
So far, Alcaraz already knew he didn’t have to play in the first round. The Monegasque tournament has a table of 56 tennis players, so that the first eight seeded players go directly to the second round, and the young Spanish tennis player is one of them.
As number 11 in the world, Alcaraz had to have at least three Top 10 players killed in Monte Carlo, and the same thing happened. Certainly in the days of Rafa Nadal and Daniil Medvedev, added Matteo Berrettiniwho recently underwent surgery for “a small operation” for injury to his right hand.
Although the damage was not serious, the Italian will not take any chances and postpone his return to the tracks for at least a weekas tournament organizers already know, who published the list of seeded teams on Tuesday.
Roberto Bautista (13) and Pablo Carreño (14) are the other Spanish seeds in a tournament that will begin on Monday, April 11, and in which Stefanos Tsitispas defended the title won last year against Andrey Rublev.
