Jannik Sinner romped his way to the Sunshine Double without dropping a set, but the Monte-Carlo Masters ushers in the clay-court swing, the world No.2's least-favorite part of the season. He's only ever reached three finals on the surface — he lost two of them. Both of those defeats were inflicted by Carlos Alcaraz, the reigning MCM champion and a brick-dust specialist.

He may be the world No.1, but Alcaraz has had a tough time of things recently. Winning the Australian Open for the first time assuaged the shock at his split from coach Juan Carlos Ferrero, but a solitary ATP 500 title aside, he's having a barren run. Daniil Medvedev and Sebastian Korda took him apart at Indian Wells and the Miami Open respectively, after which the 22-year-old bemoaned "having a target" on his back.
Is it a case of needing a break, or catching a break? Speaking of which, Novak Djokovic has played only one tournament since his runner-up finish in Melbourne, but his short run at Indian Wells ended with a whimper, an early defeat by an injury-hampered Jack Draper, who's since returned to rehab. The 38-year-old has just three ATP Tour titles to show for the last two seasons.
Alcaraz, Sinner and Djokovic, along with the rest of the top eight seeds, have a bye to the second round.
A player undoubtedly on the rise, meanwhile, is Jiri Lehecka. It's been clear for the past few seasons that the 24-year-old is a match for anybody on his day, but his run to the final of the Miami Open last month — by far the biggest match of his career — demonstrated, perhaps for the first time, a capacity for consistency.
