Alcaraz walks against Humbert, France eliminated from Davis Cup

There was no miracle.

After the frustrating defeat of Arthur Fils in the first singles, beaten by the attractive Roberto Bautista Agut (2-6, 7-5, 6-3), Ugo Humbert could not do anything this Friday against Alcaraz (6-3). , 6-3 in 1h21).

Arriving on the court with too much motivation, the French number 1 had to face the facts, he just wasn’t strong enough.

In a packed Valencia field, Humbert almost didn’t bother the world number 3 and he wasn’t even able to grab the few chances he got (0 break points converted out of 6).

In the end, Son’s poor performance will certainly have cost the Blues hope, who will face the Czech Republic in an unchallenged match this Saturday.

For their part, the Spaniards are already sure that they will participate in the last 8, scheduled for November in Malaga.
