After the first screening in Madrid, the one that worried him the most due to the physical doubts with which he arrived at the tournament, Carlos Alcaraz faces this Sunday (not before 4:00 p.m., TDP and M+) Thiago Seyboth Wild, a 24-year-old Brazilian and 63rd in the world. To prepare for his first confrontation against the controversial player from Parana (he was reported for domestic violence and accused of sympathizing with Nazi ideology), the Murcian trained with a compatriot of his rival, Fernando Meligeni, Thiago’s teammate several times in the Davis Cup. .
It turns out that the training prior to his second round match against Alexander Shevchenko was shared by Alcaraz with Daniil Medvedev, a Russian like the now Kazakh was before changing his nationality and, furthermore, a good friend of his. The Muscovite and the Rostov-born tennis player established a relationship virtually before even meeting in person on the circuit, due to his love of video games (Rainbow Six Siege).

If he reaches the second round, Alcaraz will have to look for a Frenchman or a German to rally, since his next opponent would be Ugo Humbert or Jan-Lennard Struff.
