The first day – Today’s program
Good afternoon to all OA Sport readers, and welcome to LIVE LIVE from the first round match of the Masters 1000 in Monte Carlo between Jannik Sinner and Croatian Borna Coric. It is played on the Court Rainier III (Rainier III), the most important of the complex that hosts the third 1000 of the year.
This is the first absolute taste of clay for the South Tyrolean, which goes to challenge a player with an extremely complicated recent past. Last year, in fact, Coric had to have a shoulder surgery, which made him lose the rest of 2021. He returned to Indian Wells and Miami, but we are obviously a long way from the player who reached the quarterfinals in 2019.
The number 2 of Italy is at the second presence in the tournament: last year he immediately defeated the Spaniard Albert Ramos-Vinolasonly to finish his adventure in the presence of Novak Djokovic. This time the blue is on the other side of the board: his path is not easy, but neither is it impossible in any way.
Sinner, who in case of victory will face one of the Finn Emil Rose Mountain and the Chilean Cristian Garinhe has faced Croatian players very few times in his career: twice Viktor Galovic in the period of sudden growth and a Marin Cilicwho defeated him in Cincinnati in a tough confrontation last summer.
The match between Jannik Sinner and Borna Coric, which will be broadcast on Sky Sport Uno, will be the third from 11:00 after Fognini-Rinderknech and Wawrinka-Bublik. Have fun with OA Sport LIVE LIVE!
