Date:

Carlos Alcaraz described as “impressive” the atmosphere experienced on the center court in their battles Stefanos Tsitsipas., resolved by victory by 6-4, 5-7 and 6-2.

“It was incredible, more than once I had goosebumps, that everyone was shouting ‘Carlos, Carlos!’ It is very emotional to live this kind of experience after a period of limitations due to the pandemic. To live what I have lived in this full stand is incredible ”, highlighted Alcaraz.

“I am super happy to be able to play my first semifinal in the GothicI am very excited to play this type of match and rounds, I am super excited about it ”, added Murcian, who reiterated that he will follow his own path despite the high expectations around him, with comparisons at the beginning of Rafael Nadal and his potential as the future tournament champion of Grand Slam.

“I’m fine. They’re always rocks thrown in your backpack, but I’m a boy with very clear ideas. I continued my walk without haste. Things are coming because I deserve them. and I’m working for it. And what hasn’t come yet, hopefully will happen, “said Alcaraz, who defined his fine touch on the drop shot, a blow that again gave him a lot of points against the Greek.

“Tsitsipas plays very well at baseline, but it’s hard for him to run more forward than the edges. I have a good drop shot, I would say, and I resolve well if they reach me”, commented the Spaniard.

Carlos overtook Tsitsipas following a script similar to his debut Soonwoo Kwon: after dominating enough, he lost in the second set before signing another very meritorious reaction considering he was only 18 years old.

I tried to reset my head, I went to the bathroom and I forgot everything that happened to focus on the third set ”, said Alcaraz, who threw a dart at Tsitsipas when he realized he was trying to break his rhythm when he went to the locker room. in the middle of the third set, there was already 3-0 in favor of Murcia.

“I haven’t seen anyone go to the bathroom in the middle of a break. When I went to the bathroom at the end of the second set and it took a while because he was far away, he also wanted to do and stop my rhythm, but he couldn’t ”, explained Carlos, who will be the new world top-10 on Monday, the best group in tennis, when in Godó of 2021 he calculated that he could be top-20 in the next three years.

“Everyone is very fast, but it’s a good mistake,” Alcaraz said with a laugh.
