Big win for Andrey Rublev as he is victorious 6-2 4-6 6-2 over 11 time Monte-Carlo champ Rafael Nadal.

Rublev played unreal today, Rafa didn't have any answers. The points were always played on Rublevs terms, don't remember the last time that happened on clay. I think Rafa is obviously still rounding into form so I'm not too concerned. But if Rublev plays like that going forward he is going to be a Grand Slam champion very soon.

Between him and Medvedev it might not be too long before we see a Russian calendar slam...which Felix and Shapo will have to wrestle from them and bring back home.

I don't think either player plays well on grass to be honest, might be the time for Milo's to bring home a Wimbledon title.

Kind of a crazy finish lol

BJK Cup Canada vs Serbia - Kraljevo
Crazy finish! Nina Stojanovic facing fifth MP serving 4-5 final set v Leylah Fernandez, some lights go out. After 10 mins-plus delay. NS saved 5th MP with big FH but misses FH in net on 6th. LF wins 3-6, 6-3, 6-4. Canada into 2022 Qualifiers.

Monte-Carlo Masters final will be Tsitsipas vs. Rublev which should be a cracker of a match.

Well, the final didn't exactly live up to expectations as Greek Yogurt won 6-3 6-3 in 71 minutes. Rublev looked like he was running on fumes today, but credit to Tsitsipas, he played very well today and didn't give the Russian any chance to really get into the match.

First Masters 1000 title for Tsitsipas and for Greece.

Sounding like Fed had decided not to play in Madrid.

Pella crumbled in that second set tie-breaker and now Kei looks poised to win in three sets.

He did test positive for COVID-19 at the 2020 US Open, but it really seems his love for tennis and competition has been drained from his soul.

Denis will play Jeremy Chardy in his opening round match as the Frenchman ousted the Georgian basher earlier today. As for Felix, he awaits the winner of Lopez and Musetti (only a 20 year age difference in that match).

Musetti takes out Feliciano Lopez in straight sets and will play Felix on Wednesday. Felix vs. Jeremy Chardy will likely start in a couple of hours.
