Jannik Sinner dropped a set at an ATP Masters event for the first time in 186 days but he still managed to book a spot in the Monte Carlo quarter-finals with victory over Tomas Machac.<\/b><\/p>\n

The Italian has lifted the past three Masters 1000 titles – at Paris, Indian Wells and Miami – without conceding a set.<\/p>\n

However, his streak of 37 consecutive sets was suddenly snapped when he lost control in the second set and Czech Machac took advantage to win the tie-break.<\/p>\n

It was the first time Sinner had dropped a set at that level since October’s Shangai Masters, when he retired injured against Netherlands’ Tallon Griekspoor.<\/p>\n

But Sinner regained his composure in Monaco to see out the decider and complete a 6-1 6-7 (3-7) 6-3 victory- his 19th in a row at a Masters tournament.<\/p>\n

The second seed, who has never won a clay-court Masters 1000 title, will face Canadian sixth seed Felix Auger-Aliassime in the last eight.<\/p>\n

If Sinner wins the Monte Carlo tournament he will replace Carlos Alcaraz as the world number one when the rankings are updated on Monday.<\/p>\n

He has no ranking points to defend until the Italian Open at the start of May because he was serving a three-month suspension this time last year for failing two doping tests.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
