In a stunning upset at the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters on Monday, Argentina’s 16th seed Francisco Cerundolo defeated three-time champion Stefanos Tsitsipas in straight sets, 7-5, 6-4. This significant loss is set to drop Tsitsipas’s world ranking to approximately No. 65, marking his lowest position since 2018.
The outcome represents a major upset, especially considering Tsitsipas’s impressive 22-4 record at the Monte-Carlo Country Club over seven previous appearances, where he had held a dominant presence.
