MONTE CARLO : Stefanos Tsitsipas knows his claycourt game is in good shape after he successfully defended his title at Monte Carlo on Sunday but he recognises that he needs to vary his approach to improve on other surfaces.
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.

Novak Djokovic has been tipped to be ready in time for his French Open title defence by Greg Rusedski and Daniela Hantuchova after starting the clay swing with a defeat to Alejandro Davidovich Fokina. The retired former WTA world No 7 also explained how the Serb's defeat to the eventual runner-up in Monte Carlo will help him find confidence ahead of his next tournament in Belgrade.
