There are so many reasons to love Monaco.
It’s an exceptional place where anything is possible. Where luck finds those who come to meet it with a smile. A parade of experiences and memories await you under the Mediterranean sun... Top tennis player Stéfanos Tsitsipás spoke to us about his fondness for the Principality.
Let’s fall in love with Monte-Carlo!
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.
