How is playing on the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters clay different from other competitions ? 

 

Stéfanos Tsitsipás: I think it can produce some really good slides. There is a lot of clay, so it is really easy to slide.

 

What is your best memory of Monaco ?

 

S.T: Lifting my first trophy but also the second trophy. Both were just as emotional. First memory was when I came to Monaco when I was really young. I was 6, 7 or 8, I don’t remember exactly, and the very first time I went there, I was stunned by the Monte-Carlo Country Club. To have the sea behind it, it was a great experience.

 

What attracted you most about the Principality?

 

S.T: The Monte-Carlo Country Club has been there for many, many years and has reserved a very historical side to it. You feel the tradition.

 

How would you describe Monaco in brief?

 

S.T: Exquisite.
