French Open: Carlos Alcaraz demolition was 'borderline embarrassing' for Stefanos Tsitsipas, says Tim Henman

Carlos Alcaraz shone under the lights against Stefanos Tsitsipas at the French Open on Tuesday night, and Tim Henman felt it was «borderline embarrassing» how average Alcaraz made the Greek look during the pair's one-sided quarter-final. Thanks to his comprehensive straight-sets victory over the Greek — that was laced with too many shots for a regular highlight reel — Alcaraz stormed into a now hugely anticipated semi-final with Novak Djokovic.
