PARIS: Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal closed in Friday on a blockbuster clash at the French Open as both reached the last 16, while 19-year-old Carlos Alcaraz became the youngest man to make the second week in Paris since 2006.
Novak Djokovic has told Eurosport that a lack of Grand Slam experience could be Carlos Alcaraz’s Achilles heel at the French Open. The Spanish teenager has had a stellar season, with big wins over the likes of Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Alexander Zverev to his name. Ad/> He arrived in Paris with Barcelona Open and Madrid Open titles under his belt, suggesting he could be a serious contender.
PARIS :Carlos Alcaraz's meteoric rise continued on Friday when the Spanish prodigy produced yet another awe-inspiring performance to outplay American Sebastian Korda 6-4 6-4 6-2 and reach the last 16 of the French Open for the first time.
Carlos Alcaraz produced top-drawer tennis to beat Sebastian Korda 6-4 6-4 6-2 to book his place in the fourth round of the French Open. Korda arrived in Paris as the only person to have beaten Alcaraz on clay this season and he put up an excellent fight, but the Spaniard’s level was extremely impressive as he claimed the win in two hours and six minutes. Ad/> Despite playing on the major stage, Alcaraz said his aim is to keep having fun on the tennis court.
Eurosport expert Tim Henman said Carlos Alcaraz put on a clinic in his mauling of Sebastian Korda in the third round of the French Open. Korda had a recent win over Alcaraz to his name, the only defeat the Spaniard had suffered on clay this year, and it was predicted to be a tussle in the Paris evening on Court Philippe-Chatrier. Ad/> That battle never materialised, as Alcaraz dominated from start to finish in the 6-4 6-4 6-2 win.
Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal closed in Friday on a blockbuster clash at the French Open as both reached the last 16, while Carlos Alcaraz prepared to face the only man to beat him on clay this year.
Alcaraz ha dejado en la cuneta antes a Londero y a un Albert Ramos que estuvo cerca de eliminarle. Korda por su parte se deshizo de Millman primero y Gasquet después para alcanzar esta tercera ronda. Eso y más cosas, en la previa de nuestro enviado especial a París, Nacho Albarrán:
