Carlos Alcaraz continues his way, with more or less suffering, in this Wimbledon in which he aspires to the third crown. A triplet that has already seen that it will not be easy. He suffered a good scare at the premiere against Fabio Fognini and Oliver Travet also discovered the duties he still has to do. The tournament also demands theirs, which have fallen several names that prepared the assault: Alexander Zverev, Daniil Medvedev, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Lorenzo Musetti, Holger Rune, Francisco Cerú, Ugo Humbert, Alexander Bublik, Matteo Berrettini, French Tiafoe, and also in the female team: Coconut Gauffa, Cocon Qinwen Zheng, Jessica Pegula, Jasmine Paolini, Paula Badosa.
A natural selection that exercises this uncomfortable herb for many and the one that costs to get used to. Not so, Alcaraz, who seems to flow from the beginning on this surface even if he is drawn that serve that acquires so much importance in green. At the moment, the Murcia is still very clear with such surprising defeat.
However, it will have to increase its effectiveness with the first blow and also with the rest, because it touches a third round against a Jan-Lennard Struff owner of a great serve and a height of 193 centimeters that helps his ball fall as a way to the irregular London lawn.
The German, 35 years and 125 of the ranking, explodes that capacity in the grass, as well as its direct blows and plans where it bent Filip Misolic in the first round (6-2, 5-7, 6-3 and 6-3) and Felix Auger-Aliasmememe in the second (3-6, 7-6 (9), 6-3 and 6-4). A match that began on Wednesday, but ended on Thursday because at 9 pm it had to be suspended due to lack of light.
It is not being the best course of the German, which has only reached a third round in Marseille ATP 250 and adds thirteen defeats in the premiere in 17 played tournaments. Repeat with this third game day in a Grand Slam, as it reached this roof at Roland Garros and Wimbledon last year. But it fell into the debuts of the following great tournaments.
But Alcaraz knows what this German is capable of, because this will be the fourth confrontation and has never been too simple.
The first duel was taken by the German, in Roland Garros 2021 (6-4, 7-6 (3) and 6-2), and the other three fell on the Spanish side: a very competitive clash in Wimbledon 2022, with a result of 4-6, 7-5, 4-6, 7-6 (3) and 6-4; The final of the Masters 1,000 of Madrid 2022, by 6-4, 3-6 and 6-3, and the eighths of Madrid in 2024 for another at odd 6-3, 6-7 (5) and 7-6 (4).
You cannot trust the number 2 in the world.
