Sinner can replace Carlos Alcaraz as the world number one when the rankings are updated on Monday by winning the Monte Carlo tournament.

Germany’s Zverev will be the 24-year-old’s next opponent after the world number three battled past Brazilian teenager Joao Fonseca 7-5 6-7 (3-7) 6-3 in the quarter-final.

Reigning champion and top seed Alcaraz, meanwhile, booked his last-four place following a 6-3 6-0 win against Alexander Bublik.

The seven-time Grand Slam champion will face the winner of Friday’s other quarter-final tie between fifth seed Alex de Minaur and Valentin Vacherot.
