Big reaction Carlos Alcaraz. Beaten for 36 minutes by the tennis player of the moment, he refused to leave it in the hands of a rival like the Italian. Jannik Sinner world number two and passed the final. The Indian Wells ATP Masters 1000 champion staged a massive comeback, of great merit and success, to return to the final, this Sunday (not before 10:00 pm) against Russian Daniil Medvedev or the American Tommy Paul.
Won Carlos Alcaraz by 1-6, 6-3 and 6-2 in 2h.05′ of real play, in a match that exceeded the five hours expected because there was not a day that the Murcian did not have to face some additional challenge. It was the bees then Alexander Zverevfaced the rain for three hours, with an early suspension at 1-2.
On his return to the farm he experienced the bliss that he entered every day. Jannik Sinner, the Australian Open and Rotterdam champion. He went to his knees against Alcaraz, suffered his first loss on the course after a resounding 16-0 record, and was tied again by KO after 19 consecutive victories.
From utter desperation, to finding a solution he found to turn the match around in the second set and finish it off in a big way in the third. Sinner’s tennis made him look ugly, holding himself back physically and mentally.
Alcaraz cut the negative strip with the sinful, which equaled his record (4-4) after losing the previous two. He dominated his territory again, repeating the ‘semi’ victory with the transalpine team in 2023.
A relief for Alcaraz, who returned to the final seven months after losing in the Cincinnati final against Novak Djokovic. He will seek his thirteenth ATP title, reviving a stagnant history at Wimbledon 2023.
sinful It came out in 36 minutes of perfect tennis. With a clean stick he broke it Alcaraz. The Spaniard did not fall into the trap, because he decided to avoid the fight, not giving full speed to the ball and seeking to be different, with his massive range of punches and wearing his overalls behind. Don’t smash the ball just to break it, also rub it when you touch it. Don’t give unnecessary angles, slow down the tug of war. Now a high ball, now a low. It made the opponent uncomfortable and took him out of his dynamic.
At 3-1 in the second set, Alcaraz’s confidence returned, helping him save break points in the seventh and ninth games. He never let go of the reins, he kept them.
The sinner hurt his calf, his wrist after falling. Everything was against him, especially a wonderful Alcaraz, whose return had a great merit given the rival and how he felt until his time came.
