“It’s a great feeling to win the trophy here and win back number one. I would say it was the perfect tournament,” said Alcaraz, who ended his Russian opponent’s run (19 matches won in a row) in an impressive way.
Alcaraz is now traveling to the Masters in Miami as the defending champion, and Djokovic is not there either due to the applicable entry rules. “Of course, winning in this way gives you a lot of self-confidence. I hope that I can maintain this level in Miami,” said Alcaraz, who had not dropped a single set in the entire tournament.

“I hope you’ll give me a chance next time. I tried to fight back but it was too easy for you,” the 27-year-old told the Spaniard. The Russian had won the only duel with Alcaraz in Wimbledon in 2021.
