Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz met to train this Friday at the Alpitour in Turintwo days before the start of the masters’ event where Djokovic appears as a great favorite, in addition to being the defender of the crown.
The Serbian trained with Alcaraz for an hour and a half. The first 30 minutes were a warm-up on one of the outdoor courts..
In the other 60 minutes, already in an Alpitour center full of fans eager to see the two best tennis players on the circuit, a kind of match was simulated.
The world number one beat the two 6-1 and 2-3, without breaks, at the moment they had to stop playing because it was Alexander Zverev’s turn. Djokovic had also won the training session that measured both of them the weekend before the Paris-Bercy Masters 1000.
Attended to his left arm
‘Nole’, despite appearing to have problems with his left arm, treated by his physiotherapist Milan Amanovic and subsequently taking a pill, remained untouchable with his service.
Djokovic only lost six points on serve. Alcaraz, who had to be treated by his physiotherapist Juanjo Moreno for an annoying blister on his right foot when he lost 3-0 in the opening roundstarred in some of the most spectacular points such as a crotch volley that aroused the admiration of his decorated rival.
