Carlos Alcaraz beat Alexander Bublik in a one-sided Monte-Carlo Masters match. He dropped just three games in a 6-3, 6-0 win to return to the semi-finals. The victory followed a tougher three-set match earlier in the week and showed a clear bounceback. Valentin Vacherot's run in the same event also earned him a rise in the ATP Rankings before a meeting with Alcaraz.
