In a notable shift in his tennis career, Stefanos Tsitsipas, the 26-year-old Greek sensation, has dropped out of the ATP top 15 for the first time since October 2018. This comes after his unexpected quarterfinal exit at the Monte-Carlo Masters, causing him to lose crucial 1000 points he earned as last year’s champion.
Despite his past triumphs at Monte-Carlo, which include three titles in four years, Tsitsipas couldn’t overcome Italy’s Lorenzo Musetti, ending his campaign with a 1-6, 6-3, 6-4 scoreline. His moments of brilliance didn’t translate into consistency, impacting his standings significantly.

With upcoming tournaments like the ATP 500 Barcelona Open, he faces further rankings tests, needing to defend runner-up points to prevent additional drops. In light of these events, his career takes a pivotal turn, pushing him to reclaim his place as a top contender.
