Tsitsipas crushes Evans to reach Monte Carlo final
MONACO (AFP) - Stefanos Tsitsipas defeated Dan Evans 6-2, 6-1 in the semi-finals of the Monte Carlo Masters on Saturday and will face Andrey Rublev or Casper Ruud for the title.
Fourth seed Tsitsipas needed just over an hour to dispatch Britain s Evans, who knocked out world number one Novak Djokovic in the last 16.
Tsitsipas has yet to drop a set in Monte Carlo this week and is through to his third Masters 1000 final. He finished runner-up in Canada in 2018 and Madrid the following year.
Rublev and Ruud meet in the second semi-final later on Saturday. Rublev ended Rafael Nadal s bid for a 12th Monte Carlo title in the quarter-finals, while the unseeded Ruud eliminated 2019 champion Fabio Fognini.
