Is Carlos Alcaraz playing slower?: Medvedev says yes

It doesn’t sound like a criticism, but it is an interesting analysis. Daniil Medvedev has commented to the media that he sees Carlos Alcaraz’s game slower in recent months and says that he does not know why the Spanish champion has had this change. It must be remembered that both are immersed in the middle of the masters tournament in Turin.

“If you ask me two or three months ago, I’m sure it was a surprise. Tennis is a very complicated sport. At this moment, and I don’t know the reason, we feel that Carlos is playing slower. He doesn’t have the same confidence that he has had. throughout the year. That can happen to all of us. Even to Djokovic when he was younger. The question is how quickly he will recover, whether it will be in this tournament or next year,” Daniil commented.

The Russian also analyzed the reason for Carlos’ defeat against Zverev in Turin: “When he lost the second set, they showed the speed of the blows. Sascha hit 10 kilometers faster than Carlos, and that is very surprising. In general, when I saw the match, at the beginning I felt that Carlos was not at his best level and neither was Sascha, so I was not surprised. In the end it was a great fight and a great match. There were no surprises. Sascha can also play and serve well, it will be interesting to play against him for the eighteenth time.”

Medvedev is in the same group as Carlos along with Rublev and Zverev and will have to play tomorrow against the German player, who has just won against Alcaraz. Daniil won his first match of the tournament against Rublev, his compatriot and friend.
