Andrey Rublev vs Holger Rune: World No. 9 Holger Rune will square off against No. 6 Andrey Rublev in the final of the Monte-Carlo Masters on Sunday (April 16).
Both the finalist reached the stage after thumping victories in the semifinals yesterday. While Rune outclassed Jannik Sinner 1-6, 7-5, 7-5, Rublev knocked out Taylor Fritz 5-7, 6-1, 6-3. En route to the summit clash, Rune overcame the likes of Daniil Medvedev, Matteo Berrettini, and Dominic Thiem. The Dane is yet to add a trophy under his belt, having lost in all the tournaments he has played this year without reaching the final in any of the events since starting the season at the Adelaide International with a defeat from Yoshihito Nishioka.
Rublev, meanwhile, will be playing his second final of the season. He reached the summit clash at the 2024 Dubai Open where he was outclassed by Daniil Medvedev. Like Rune, Rublev is also eyeing his first trophy this season. The Russian knocked out Taylor Fritz, Jan Lennard Struff, Karen Khachanov, and Jaume Munar to advance to the summit clash.
