El primer set ante Tsitsipas
“The truth is that it was very difficult. I remember that at 5-2 I was only thinking about winning my serve to start the second set by serving. The first one was already almost lost because he had had few opportunities to break his serve in the first set. But, in the end, I kept fighting until the end, I was able to pull it off. I was able to break him twice and end up winning the set. That gave me a lot of energy to start the second. It has been very important. In the end, I’m very happy with my level.” Alcaraz pointed out.
Segunda victoria ante un Top 5, ambas con Tsitsipas
“I knew that Stefanos is a player who is always looking to hit from the right. So I tried to hit two or three crosscourt backhands, and then switch down the line to the right of him. Avoiding his reverse forehand was key. The parallel backhand was very important”.
the next rival
“Kecmanovic comes from playing great games and beating incredible people. For me it will simply be a very difficult match that I will have to face in the best possible way”.
