The Spanish tennis player Carlos Alcaraz (3), third seed, explained in a press conference after his passage to the round of 16 of the Australian Open that his level could have been better and that he made mistakes that he shouldn’t have made.
“It would have been better. “I made a lot of mistakes that I shouldn’t have made, but, in general, I’m happy, even if I have things to improve for the next match,” Alcaraz said after beating the Portuguese. Nuno Borges in four sets.
Alcaraz revealed that he eats a Spanish tortilla before his games and also his “secret things.”
“Before the game I get my secret things. I have nothing to say about it. I had this and a Spanish omelet a few hours before the game. I work with a Spanish brand and I get great products from them. I imagine that the cameras recorded it,” he revealed.
“My advice to you? Don’t let them beat me, I guess. I see them capable of surpassing anyone, including me. They have a level. I saw it yesterday have beat Medvedev in five sets, it was amazing, then Fonseca playing their first five-set matches,” he added when asked about the new generation of tennis players led by Brazilian Joao Fonseca and American Learner Tien.
“If I play against Draper, it will be a difficult game. It has a very good level. We will train together in the academy during the preseason, but in the end it is not possible,” concluded Alcaraz who will face the British. Jack Draper or the place Alexander Vukic in the round of 16.
