Tsitsipas Dazzles in Win over Rublev, Monte Carlo Title | Monday Match Analysis
Stefanos Tsitsipas has won his first long-waited Masters 1000 title in Monte Carlo, after a clean 6-3 6-3 win over Andrey Rublev. On this week's MMA, I explain why Tsitsipas has developed into a threat to anyone on clay, why his matchup with Rublev is surface dependent, how 2nd serve discrepancy and backhand defense made all the difference in Sunday's final. Plus, I delve into the unique tactics that saw Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal lose to Dan Evans and Rublev respectively. Finally, this marks the first installment of the 2021 French Open Power Rankings. Should Roger Federer be included? Federer has announced he'll play the French Open, but his only warm-up event will be Geneva. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/monday-match-analysis/support
