The ATP 250 Montpellier is played indoors, but the weather can still disrupt the tournament.

During the match between Jesper de Jong and Flavio Cobolli, violent thunderstorms broke out.

This was something the organizers had not foreseen, and they were reassured that it did not happen during the tribute ceremony for Richard Gasquet, following his defeat by Tallon Griekspoor.

Favoritism?

Last year: Sinner seed 1, the organizers schedule Alcaraz on day 1, Sinner on day 2.

This year: Alcaraz seed 1, the organizers schedule Alcaraz on day 1, Sinner on day 3.

That means: 7 matches in 15 days for Alcaraz, 7 in 13 days for Sinner; and no rest day for Sinner between quarter and semis, 1 full day rest for Alcaraz.
