Loaded with illusion has returned to the slopes Carlos Alcaraz. He ended up in Indian Wells earlier than expected, because his intention was to repeat crown and logo his first tournament triplet, but he crossed a very inspired Jack Draper in the semifinals on a bad day. But learned the lessons, that of El Palmar reactivates the energies and ambition in the second 1,000 masters of the season, of which he keeps a great memory because it was the first title of this caliber that he raised, in 2022.
It also intends to cut the greatest possible points to Jannik Sinner, still absent from the circuit for the three -month punishment for doping (will return in Hamburg), and to try to minimize those who stopped winning in Indian Wells, as he defended 1,000 points of the champion and lost 600 as a semifinalist. But with Borrón and New Account, the Murcia has 15 wins in this course, and the title of Róterdam, and 3 losses: rooms of the Australian Open against Djokovic, Doha’s rooms against Lehecka and the semifinals of Indian Wells against Draper.
«I think there are good results, good level and good rhythm despite some defeats that hurt me. I’m maturing, I’m going on a good way, ”said the Murcia in his presentation before the press. Where he also had words for the statement that the Djokovic (PTPA) union sent Wednesday announcing that he will take legal actions against ATP, WTA and the International Federation, tennis estates to those who harassed to be an “abusive and illegal” system. No one told me anything. I agree at some points. There are other things that I do not agree. The main thing is that I do not support it, so, ”he wanted to set the matter.
And everything has ready to get back to its premiere to David Goffin.
The Belgian, 34 years and 55 of the world, which became 7 of the classification in 2017, when it reached the final of the Cup of Teachers, was also a finalist in the 1,000 Masters of Cincinnati in 2019. But, champion of 7 titles, does not rise a trophy since 2022 (Morocco) prey to the lesions.
In principle, he should not entail any danger to Spanish, although it is true that they have a face to face tied to one. Alcaraz triumphed in the first date, in the first round of Melbourne 1 in 2021, 6-3 and 6-3, but the Belgian took the last duel, in the first round of Astana 2022, by 7-5 and 6-3.
From there Asoman Brandon Nakashima or Roberto Carballés, Grigor Dimitrov, Casper Ruud, Tommy Paul and Francisco Cerú. And for the semifinals the main dish would arrive: an Alcaraz-Djokovic to revalidate those rooms of Australia and that could not be repeated either in Doha or Indian Wells because the Serbian also passes through a hurry moments in terms of results.
«We are on the same side of the painting, hopefully he can reach the semifinals and me too. As I said before, these are the games that attract public to tennis because I think that every time we have played it is fun to see, ”he said about this hypothetical shock the number 3 in the world.
