"We came here just trying to get as many matches as possible, having good feedback before other big tournaments coming up. Today was very high level from both of us. It was a bit windy, breezy, completely different conditions than the tournament until today."
"But look, the result is amazing. Getting back to No. 1 means a lot to me. At the same, as I always say, the ranking is secondary. I'm very happy to win at least one big trophy on this surface. I haven't done it before, so it means a lot to me."
Jannik Sinner defeated Carlos Alcaraz 7-6 (5), 6-3 to win the Monte-Carlo Masters and reclaim the world No. 1 ranking. Sinner managed to handle the challenging windy conditions better than Alcaraz, extending his Masters 1000 winning streak to 22 matches. Sinner expressed happiness about winning a significant trophy on clay, emphasizing that while the ranking is important, the victory itself holds greater significance. The match featured a competitive first set that went to a tiebreak, where Sinner ultimately prevailed.
