Alcaraz’s injury
“I did not see options so that I could continue competing“, Confirmed the Spanish player. “I have to take care of my body if I want to stay healthy and I was not feeling well to be involved in the game, so I had to withdraw. The right adductor was what gave me problemsCarlos explained. “Before the game I felt some discomfort but when I start, I start trying to control the pain. At the end of the first set and at the beginning of the second, it began to increase“, he pointed. He also highlighted the five-set battles. “Playing two games with five sets in a row, playing at a high level, at a great intensity like four hours, it’s really hard for me. I’m not used to playing this type of games in a row “

“It was a great tournament for me. Not disappointing to have to walk away in a Grand Slam quarter-final“He added. “These hard and fought matches have given me a lot of experience. This tournament made me mature a lot and I think I have been able to play at a high level of tennis. Therefore, I am very happy to have played my first quarter-finals in a Grand Slam“, Concluded the El Palmar player.
