For the first time in 23 years at a Masters tournament, the top three seeds were eliminated in the opener. They are Daniil Medvedev, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Carlos Alcaras.
“It is still difficult to say how systematic this is and whether it will be repeated. After all, no one knows how long Medvedev, Alcaraz, Tsitsipas will perform at this level. But the fact that in men’s tennis the competition has become denser is a fact,” Kafelnikov said.
