Carlos Alcaraz, tenor with racket at Diada de Sant Jordi

Date:

Both games started at almost the same time, 4:15 pm What will end then, the end of Gothic or the Barça-Athletic soccer? Two top events coincide in time and place on the busiest day of the year in BarcelonaThe Sant Jordi’s Dayand Carlos Alcaraz He soon managed to fix the issue: tennis ended early because he liquidated Stefanos Tsitsipas in 78 minutes and at 5:30 pm he was already a two-time champion at Godó, when Barça were still defending their 1-0 win in Camp Nou.

“He does what he wants!” Some youths commented after another blow to Tsitsipas, who was often a puppet in the hands of the artist Alcaraz, the Greek who could not stop the storm of blows from Murcia. “Maybe for the audience yes, but for me it wasn’t easy,” Carlos said afterwards. But yes, from the stands his superiority is obvious.

Alcaraz enters the track in the best possible way, blaring through the speakers ‘eye of the tiger’. “It was a pleasant surprise because I didn’t say anything. It helped me a lot because it was the song of ‘Rocky’ What should I wear before the game? It’s an extra motivation”, thanks the Murcian.

The finale started with ‘Rocky’ and ended with the ever moving ‘Nessun slept’preamble to the delivery of trophies. Cesar Cortesaccompanied by a string quintet of Lyceummoved the whole crowd and was applauded as Carlos Alcaraz had been several times before, another first-rate tenor in his field.

In his finalist speech, Tsitsipas made a very elegant speech, especially to Alcaraz. “I was fascinated by how you played the first time I saw you and your evolution is very impressive. You had an incredible tournament and I wish you the best,” said the Greek, who wanted joke despite his obvious defeat.

“I wish everyone a very happy Valentine’s Day. Sant Jordi“, he exclaimed, provoking general applause. “I prefer the Ballantine’s Day“, he joked a few seconds later to the laughter of the crowd.

As tradition dictates, Alcaraz bathed the champions in the pool of RCT Barcelona, accompanied by ball boys. Carlos left the water and jumped a second time after also taking his trainer and physiotherapist by the hand, Juan Carlos Ferrero and Juanjo Moreno.

Family and friends lived Alcaraz’s victory live. “A lot of people from Murcia came, this is the special thing about playing at home. I feel very lucky to experience it with them. They mean a lot to me. It’s always a pleasure to play at home in front of your ,” he arranged ‘Charlie’the new two-time Godó champion.
