Musetti arrives at Monte Carlo as the 4th seed and defending clay credentials—he reached the final last year, taking a set off Alcaraz, and boasts 141 career clay wins. However, his 2026 season has been derailed by a succession of injuries: a torn adductor forced his retirement at the Australian Open quarter-final while leading 2-0 against Djokovic, and a right arm injury just caused him to withdraw from Miami. His sole competitive return at Indian Wells against world No. 58 Fucsovics was described as 'uncompetitive,' ending in a 5–7, 1–6 loss. He has not won a match since January 26.
