PariscTypeface:> The Monte Carlo Masters saw a shock defeat for top seed and world number two Alexander Zverev at the hands of Matteo Berrettini on Tuesday. The German was beaten 2-6, 6-3, 7-5 as Berrettini came from behind to snatch victory and claim the biggest win of his career by ranking in a tense final set. Italian Berrettini, the world number 34, failed to serve out for the match at 5-4 but broke again in the next game, with one forehand winner coming after a remarkable 48-shot rally. He then made no mistake in his next service game, completing victory in two hours and 27 minutes. “I wasn’t hitting my forehand and serve like I had in previous days and I had to adapt and adjust to the conditions and Sascha was playing unbelievable, so it was not easy,” Berrettini said.
