Tennis on TV Next Week: How to watch the Monte Carlo Masters and the BJK Cup Qualifiers!
The first clay ATP 1000 event of the year is now underway, and we have all the information on how you can watch the likes of Novak Djokovic, Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz at the Monte Carlo Masters over the next week.
How can you watch the Monte Carlo Masters?
Novak Djokovic is a two-time champion in Monte Carlo, but has only won two of his last five matches at the tournament.
The Serbian is not the only former winner returning to the event this year, with defending champion Andrey Rublev, two-time winner Stefanos Tsitsipas and 2015 victor Stan Wawrinka also looking for more success in Monaco.
However, record 11-time champion Rafael Nadal will not be present, after announcing his withdrawal from the event due to not being physically ready to compete.
And even if I am working hard & making the maximum effort every day with all the will to play and compete again at tournaments that have been very important for me, the truth is that I can’t play today. You have no idea how hard this is for me to not be able to play these events.

There are still lots of stars remaining at the tournament, with Australian Open champion Jannik Sinner and Wimbledon winner Carlos Alcaraz present.
Sinner has only lost one match all year, to the aforementioned Alcaraz at Indian Wells, and achieved his best result in Monte Carlo last year when reaching the semi-finals.

It is only Alcaraz’s second appearance at the ATP 1000 tournament, after pulling out last year due to injury.
Other top seeds in the draw include Italian Open winner Daniil Medvedev, last year’s runner-up Holger Rune and two-time Roland Garros finalist Casper Ruud.
You can watch the Monte Carlo Masters on Sky Sports in the United Kingdom and Ireland, or on Tennis TV worldwide.
