Stefanos Tsitsipas achieved a significant milestone by winning his third Monte Carlo Masters title, defeating Casper Ruud in the final with scores of 6-1, 6-4. This victory marks Tsitsipas's third win in four years at this event, placing him alongside tennis legends like Rafael Nadal, Bjorn Borg, Thomas Muster, and Ilie Nastase, who have also won the Monte Carlo Masters multiple times. The win also propelled Tsitsipas back into the top 10 ATP rankings, securing the 7th position. Tsitsipas's path to the title was notable for his victories over top-10 players, a feat not achieved since Novak Djokovic in 2015 at this tournament. Tsitsipas expressed his emotions, stating the third title felt more special than the previous two. Meanwhile, Ruud's performance boosted his ranking from 10th to 6th.
