Carlos Alcaraz has been backed to follow in Novak Djokovic's footsteps by reaching the world No 1 ranking despite his early loss in Monte Carlo. The Serb's former coach Boris Becker believes the 18-year-old will reach the top spot of men's tennis if he continues his current trajectory in what is the latest in a series of big predictions for Alcaraz from former pros.
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.
Hay ganas de tenis en Barcelona. La pandemia canceló la edición del Godó de 2020, justo cuando estaba todo preparado pero irrumpió con fuerza la primera ola del COVID-19. En 2021 se pudo celebrar el torneo pero con unas restricciones de aforo que deslucieron la belleza que se vio en una pista central que vibró con la final entre Rafa Nadal y Stefanos Tsitsipas. Ahora, sin ataduras, la venta de entradas está siendo un éxito desde que se abrió el proceso.
Defending champion Stefanos Tsitsipas and second seed Alexander Zverev posted straight sets wins on their way to the Monte Carlo Masters quarter-finals on Thursday.
Un buen partido de Pablo Carreño no fue suficiente para contrarrestar la inspiración de Alexander Zverev, en los octavos de final del Masters 1.000 de Montecarlo. El alemán, con Novak Djokovic en el limbo (eliminado a las primeras de cambio por Alex Davidovich), la supernova Carlos Alcaraz en casa y Daniil Medvedev y Rafa Nadal curando heridas se siente favorito en el Principado. Y lo demostró.
Djokovic played just his fourth match of the year when he lost to Alejandro Davidovich Fokina, and looked well short of both fitness and sharpness throughout.
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.
