Both semifinals promised a lot, and did not disappoint in terms of quality.

World No. 3 Alcaraz has only featured in the Monaco-based event once previously, and is gunning to get his campaign on the red dirt off to a flyer.

It was an all-Spanish semifinal on Court Rainier III, and the seeded star proved why he&rsquo;s still among the best players in the world. The second serve win ratio was the distinguishing factor between the two players &ndash; while Alcaraz won 64% points on his second serve, ADF managed a mere 34%.<\/p><p>Alcaraz broke Fokina in his very first service game, and went up 3-0 in no time. However, the players exchanged multiple breaks before Carlitos took the tiebreak. In the second set, a break in the opening game was enough to seal the deal for the four-time major champion.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Alejandro Davidovich Fokina &amp; Carlos Alcaraz Shotfest | Monte-Carlo 2025 Semi-Final Highlights\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wW6DvlWmjGE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>By reaching the Monte Carlo Masters final, Alcaraz reached his seventh Masters-1000 title clash before turning 22 &ndash; only behind Rafael Nadal (15) and Novak Djokovic (9).

Saturday was no different, as Musetti overcame a 1-6 thumping in Set-1 against Alex de Minaur to emerge victorious.<\/p><p>Musetti found no rhythm whatsoever as the match kicked off. The Australian took the attack to the Olympic bronze medalist, preventing him from holding serve even once in the opener. Just as Musetti settled into the encounter, the first set was gone. However, he roared back from 3-4 down in Set-2 to win it 6-4. The decider was no different &ndash; the players traded multiple breaks before Musetti held his nerve to close out the match.<\/p><p>An abysmal first serve percentage of 52% sealed the fate for de Minaur &ndash; he never managed to put the Italian in tricky positions. As a result, the points began to get extended which played into the hands of the single-handed backhand specialist. After battling for over two hours, Musetti served for the match at 5-4 but got broken again. Yet, he won the tiebreaker and ensured that he was one win away from breaking into the ATP Top-10.<\/p><p><strong>Result: <\/strong>Lorenzo Musetti won 1-6 6-4 7-6(4).<\/p><p><strong>READ MORE: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/atp-monte-carlo-masters-odds-who-has-the-best-odds-to-win-the-first-masters-of-the-clay-season\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>2025 ATP Monte Carlo Masters Odds: Who Has the Best Odds to Win the First Masters of the Clay Season?<\/a><\/strong><\/p><p>The ATP Monte Carlo Masters final between Carlos Alcaraz and Lorenzo Musetti will begin at 12 noon local time on Sunday.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was an action-packed semifinal Saturday in Monaco.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":34,"featured_media":39461,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_mux_skip_reasons":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[4770],"tags":[5686,5688,4917,4948,5053,5468,4949,952,4936],"class_list":["post-39457","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tennis","tag-alejandro-davidovich-fokina","tag-alex-de-minaur","tag-atp","tag-carlos-alcaraz","tag-lorenzo-musetti","tag-monte-carlo-masters","tag-novak-djokovic","tag-rafael-nadal","tag-tennis"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>2025 ATP Monte Carlo Masters Semifinal Results: Carlos Alcaraz Joins the Greats, Lorenzo Musetti Produces More Comeback Magic - The Playoffs<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Catch the ATP Monte Carlo Masters 2025 SF results - ft.

I specialise in tennis and football writing at The Playoffs News, and I have prior experience working at EssentiallySports and Sportskeeda. Born and raised in Bengaluru, India, sport was my safe space right from my childhood. After trying my hand at multiple sports and representing my educational institutions in cricket, badminton and table tennis, I found sports media to be my calling. My message to the readers is not to be shy to express themselves - regardless of whether it is playing, talking or writing about sport. And if you\u2019re a fan of Roger Federer, Lionel Messi and\/or Stephen Curry - I\u2019m your guy. \u00a0","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sankalphk","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/sankalp-hk-660254215"],"url":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/author\/sankalp\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39457"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/34"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=39457"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39457\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":39462,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39457\/revisions\/39462"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/39461"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39457"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=39457"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=39457"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
