Clay season begins this week at the Monte Carlo Open – with the top players in men's tennis swapping the American hard courts for Europe's red dirt.

The main draw gets underway at the Monte Carlo Country Club on Monday, and stars are expected in the stands as well as on court as the road to the Roland-Garros really begins.

Jannik Sinner has been the dominant force in recent weeks, winning at Indian Wells and the Miami Open to claim his first Sunshine Double without dropping a set.

Though Sinner has outshone World No.1 Carlos Alcaraz lately, clay is the Spaniard's preferred surface, and the World No.1 arrives in Monte Carlo aiming to defend his 2025 crown.

Jack Draper joins Novak Djokovic on the absentee list, with the Englishman preferring to focus on working his way back to full fitness after his recent injury, but British No.1 Cam Norrie is part of the singles draw.

There is no better way to mark the start of clay season than on the sunny courts of the Monte Carlo Masters, and fans in the UK will be treated to extensive coverage throughout the tournament.
