The Monte-Carlo 2024 tournament launches this Saturday, April 6, a particularly long season on clay.
After the Australian Open, Indian Wells and Miami, Rafael Nadal announced on Thursday evening, April 4, its package for the Masters 1000 in Monte Carlo. The Spaniard, 11 times winner on the Rock, has clearly not recovered from his back injury which had already prevented him from participating in the American tour. In what should be his last season on the ATP circuit, the Mallorcan has so far only played one tournament, in Brisbane at the beginning of January. This package in Monte Carlo, for the first tournament on clay, does not bode well less than two months before Roland Garros, where he has won 14 times.
First major meeting of the European clay court tour, Monte-Carlo should also be the opportunity for the world number one Novak Djokovic to relaunch after a lackluster start to the season. Eliminated in the semi-final at the Australian Open by Jannik Sinner, the American tour ended with a simple 3rd round in Indian Wells and a withdrawal in Miami. The Serb is only 12th in the Race.
