Medvedev Advances as Upsets Shake Monte Carlo Masters

Posted : 08 April 2025

Daniil Medvedev secured his spot in the second round of the Monte Carlo Masters with a hard-fought 7-5, 4-6, 6-4 victory over former world No 8 Karen Khachanov. The match, which lasted nearly three hours on Court Rainier III, saw Medvedev take a set and a break lead before Khachanov mounted a comeback.

 

The 29-year-old Medvedev, who had recently fallen out of the top 10 following an early exit from the Miami Open, was eager to return to form on clay, aiming for his first title since winning the Rome Open two years ago.

 

In other results, there were some surprising upsets. 11th seed Ben Shelton was knocked out by 42nd-ranked Alejandro Davidovich Fokina in a three-set thriller, 6-7 (2/7), 6-2, 6-1.

 

 The anticipated match between Novak Djokovic and Stan Wawrinka also failed to materialize, with Wawrinka falling to Alejandro Tabilo in a match that stretched for nearly two and a half hours. Tabilo triumphed 1-6, 7-5, 7-5 in a dramatic contest.

 

Meanwhile, other notable results included Gael Monfils’ victory over Hungary's Fabian Marozsan, 4-6, 6-1, 6-1, and Matteo Berrettini's straight-sets win against Mariano Navone, setting up a clash with top seed Alexander Zverev in the next round.

 

Felix Auger-Aliassime was defeated by German qualifier Daniel Altmaier, while Lorenzo Musetti staged a comeback from a set down to defeat qualifier Bu Yunchaokete. Jiri Lehecka and Marcos Giron also advanced with straight-set wins over Sebastian Korda and Denis Shapovalov, respectively.
