To date, Carlos Alkaras was the only tennis player who beat Janik Siner in 2024.
In the company of the Spaniard is now Stefanos Tsitsipas, who was better than the Italian to qualify for the Masters final in Monte Carlo.
The Greek announced better days and celebrated in three sets - 6:4, 3:6, 6:4 and will fight for the third Masters title, after winning both in the Principality.
A break in the third game gave Tsitsipas a 1:0 advantage, but Siner responded and tied the game in sets with a furious game.
The decisive part of the game was marked by bad decisions of the referees, and the biggest one was certainly seen in the 5th game in which Siner chased the second break after leading 3:1.
Then Tsicipas made a double service error on the rival's break chance, the referees did not see it, and neither did Siner, although the out was obvious. The Italian ace rounded the trail after the lost point, but then it was too late...
And that seemed to determine the continuation of the match, because Siner also had problems with his right thigh muscle - everything went to the mill of the opponent, who retaliated with a break for 4:4, and then settled the match with a new one in the 10th game.
Tsicipas will meet the winner of the duel between Novak Djokovic and Kasper Rud in the final.
