Monte Carlo Masters 2025 Final Between Carlos Alcaraz and Lorenzo Musetti Rescheduled Due to Weather
The 2025 Monte Carlo Masters men’s singles final between Carlos Alcaraz and Lorenzo Musetti has been rescheduled due to expected poor weather conditions on Sunday.
In an official statement, tournament organizers announced:
“Due to the weather forecast for Sunday, and in consultation with ATP officials, the Singles Final will now be played at 12:00 PM on Court Rainier III to give the best opportunity to successfully complete this incredible 2025 edition.”
Lorenzo Musetti, who is preparing for a high-stakes rematch against Alcaraz—whom he famously beat at the 2022 Hamburg Open—spoke about adapting to tricky conditions during his semifinal:
“The conditions at the beginning – I wasn’t really appreciating them. The rain and humidity made it difficult to break through the wall that was Alex de Minaur. But in the end, I stayed patient—and that was the key.”
With anticipation building, the final promises a thrilling contest between two of tennis’ brightest young stars—weather permitting.
