Tsitsipas scheitert an Qualifikant!

Sieg in Monte Carlo, Finale in Barcelona, Auftakt-Aus in Madrid: Der Grieche Stefanos Tsitsipas ist nach seinem überragenden Start in die Sandplatzsaison überraschend gestolpert.

Beim ATP-Masters in der spanischen Hauptstadt unterlag er in der zweiten Runde dem brasilianischen Qualifikanten Thiago Monteiro 4:6, 4:6. In der ersten Runde hatte Tsitsipas (25) ein Freilos.

In Madrid wollte der zweimalige Grand-Slam-Finalist seinen Aufwärtstrend der vergangenen Wochen fortsetzen. Zuletzt war Tsitsipas unter die Top 10 der Weltrangliste zurückgekehrt.

In Monte Carlo hatte er auf seinem Weg zum Masterstitel unter anderem Olympiasieger Alexander Zverev (Hamburg) und den in diesem Jahr dominierenden Italiener Jannik Sinner geschlagen.

Sein Siegeszug wurde in Barcelona erst im Finale vom Norweger Casper Ruud gestoppt.
