Alexander Zverev has been snubbed from a list of French Open favourites despite being on course to become the second seed at the tournament. Former British No 1 Greg Rusedski explained that the German was not a realistic threat for the title as he named Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Carlos Alcaraz as the four favourites to win the clay-court Grand Slam.
Tsitsipas said he is aiming to finish the season in the world's top two after successfully defending his Monte Carlo Masters title with a hard-fought victory over Spain's Alejandro Davidovich Fokina in Sunday's final. Third seed Tsitsipas hammered 21 winners and made only 11 unforced errors in the Monaco sunshine to win 6-3, 7-6 (7/3) in an hour and 36 minutes. It was the 23-year-old Greek's eighth ATP title and first in 11 months as he made the perfect start to the clay-court season.

Rafael Nadal has sent a message of congratulations to fellow Spaniard Alejandro Davidovich Fokina after the world No 46 enjoyed a career-best week at the Monte Carlo Masters, beating world Novak Djokovic in the world No 1's opening match before reaching his first-ever final. The 22-year-old suffered a straight-sets defeat to defending champion Stefanos Tsitsipas in Sunday's final, as the Greek won the title for a second consecutive year.
Stefanos Tsitsipas successfully defended his Monte Carlo Masters title with a 6-3, 7-6 (7/3) victory over Spain's Alejandro Davidovich Fokina in Sunday's final.
Carlos Alcaraz has been backed to follow in Novak Djokovic's footsteps by reaching the world No 1 ranking despite his early loss in Monte Carlo. The Serb's former coach Boris Becker believes the 18-year-old will reach the top spot of men's tennis if he continues his current trajectory in what is the latest in a series of big predictions for Alcaraz from former pros.
MONACO (AP) — Defending champion Stefanos Tsitispas breezed into the Monte Carlo Masters final after dispatching second-seeded Alexander Zverev 6-4, 6-2 on Saturday.
Former world No 9 Marc Rosset has explained why Novak Djokovic's recent split with Marian Vajda "can't compare" to Rafael Nadal's split with his uncle and former coach Toni. The retired Swiss player has already warned the world No 1 that it didn't "pay off" the last time he parted ways with his long-time coach but said the split wasn't the same as Nadal and his uncle Toni with Nadal and Djokovic both now working with former Grand Slam champions in Carlos Moya and Goran Ivanisevic.
