Boris Becker believes Carlos Alcaraz is on course to become world No. 1 provided the Spanish teen sensation can continue his stunning rise. Alcaraz was disappointingly knocked out of the Monte Carlo Masters on Wednesday at the last-32 stage, which was a jolt back down to earth from his win at the previous Masters event of 2022 in Miami.
Rafael Nadal has been told his latest injury will be "a big setback" in his hopes of winning the upcoming French Open. The world No 4 suffered a stress fracture in his rib during Indian Wells which has so far kept him out of Monte Carlo and Barcelona. Six-time Grand Slam champion Boris Becker has shared his own experience with a similar injury and admitted it takes a "long time" to play "properly" again.
Boris Becker hopes Rafael Nadal can get back to his best after picking up a lengthy injury at the Miami Open last month. Nadal was on a 20-match winning streak heading into the final before losing to USA's Taylor Fritz in straight sets in Florida. Two days later the Spaniard confirmed he was having breathing difficulties due to a cracked rib.
A clampdown on misconduct in the wake of recent on-court outbursts from Nick Kyrgios and Alexander Zverev is raising fears players will become emotionless «computers and machines».
Carlos Alcaraz has advised against playing in all the big clay-court tournaments this year with Boris Becker warning that the red dirt season is exhausting and could take a toll on him on.
Former men's tennis world No. 1 Boris Becker hopes players do not turn into emotionless "computers and machines" following the ATP's warning that there will be stricter punishment for on-court misconduct in the wake of a spate of angry outbursts.
Boris Becker hopes players do not turn into emotionless "computers and machines" following the ATP's warning that there will be stricter punishment for on-court misconduct in the wake of a spate of angry outbursts. Alexander Zverev was thrown out of a tournament in Acapulco in February after smashing his racket against the umpire's chair during an expletive-laden tirade, while Nick Kyrgios was fined for his outbursts at Indian Wells and Miami last month. Becker, who had many angry outbursts during his career, said the sport needed players to show emotion on court.
He concedes “everything has a limit”, but Boris Becker believes tennis is “an entertainment sport” and “a bit of blood, sweat and tears” are good.
