Carlos Alcaraz he beat the serbian Laslo Djere 6-2, 4-6 and 6-2 in two hours of play in his ATP 250 tournament debut on clay in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The Murcian has reasons to smile again, having been absent from the official professional circuit for more than three months almost chained by two injuries, a stomach that failed to close his great 2022 and another in the right leg that aborted his 2023 debut in Australia.
He had to wait until February to come back and succeed. He has an appointment in the quarterfinals against another Serb, dusan lajovic.
Whatever happens, the man from El Palmar will not forget his magical 2022, when he won in Rio, Miami, Godó, Madrid and, especially, the US Open, which he accompanied by becoming the youngest number one in history at the age of 19.
An indelible memory that also has a special space on the back of his left arm. The date 110922 was tattooed there. On September 11, he reigned in New York, defeating Norwegian Casper Ruud in the final. 12 rose to No.
This is the second known tattoo of Alcaraz, who in December 2022 proudly announced that he had honored grandfather Carlos’ motto (head, heart, ball) by carving three C’s into his skin. Then he chose the forearm of the left arm.
He is right-handed in tennis, although he hits the backhand with both hands.
