Carlos Alcaraz y Jannik Sinner They advance in the US Open without having compassion for rivals. The Italian gave symptoms of humanity in the third round against Shapovalov and he himself had to say: “I am not a machine.” Sometimes it seems because of its way of playing, that brushes perfection. In the eighths against Bublik he returned to Put the “Terminator” mode in your racket. The Kazakh reached the duel without having yielded his service, and in that meeting he lost it … eight times of eleven, for 6-1, 6-1 and 6-1 final.
The hypothetical Duel of Jannik with Alcaraz could only be in the final, which would mean repeating the last games of Wimbledon and Roland Garros. At the moment, the duel they maintain is at a distance and now the most important obstacles arrive. It was not yet, for Carlos Jiri Leheckka (6-4, 6-2 y 6-4)his opponent in the quarterfinals, one of the tennis players who has managed to defeat this course, in the distant February. Then, in Queen’s, the Murcian won, in the fight for the title. Nothing had to do with today’s duel with the other two. The beginning of the course was full of errors. The one with the London grass was a very tight game. That of New York, an Alcaraz exhibition. Another one in this US Open in which The word is being “concentration”just one of the few buts that could be put to a player so young, who with 22 years already has better palmarés than all active tennis players, except Djokovic, because it is impossible: nobody has a better curriculum than Nole. The Serbian could be his rival in the semifinals, if this morning in Spain the number one of history manages to overcome Fritz.
Not a break ball against
Carlos responded to Sinner’s rotundity with another fissure performance. In the case of Spanish, it reaches the penultimate round without having lost a set and having had to play only a Tie-Break, in the eighth before Rinderknech. In the previous round, before Darderi, he granted Juan Carlos Ferrero’s pupil his only break in the tournament. Leheckka was not close to getting it, therefore he was far from disturbing the boy from El Palmar. Carlos’s start was devastated again, with a break in his favor. From there, he gave the feeling that the forces matched, but the Spanish already had the advantage. The equality was just an impression. It seemed that the panorama would change in the next partial, but the story was repeated: exit break. It was another of the samples of the mentality that Alcaraz is having in this appointment and for a while to this part. His mistakes are less and less. It does not stop even if he sees him on track, although sometimes he recreates with some points, because he needs it. It was not the case today. The tips that put the fans of Arthur Ashe standing alone, also because he is so.
Yes, the Czech shows more in the third partial. Again there was the threat of starting with a break against, but did not lose his nerves. It was a partial in which each Lehecka serve game was torture, a 0-30 or 15-30 to face, or a 30-40, while Carlos’s were resolved blank or almost. The best exchanges were lived, because Jiri was brave to the desperate. He kept standing until the ninth game, in which he finished despairing his opponent defending. He returned one, another, a shot … and Leheckka has already looked for the winner and sent her out, who preceded the “come on.” He defended him with a “Virgen” serve again, closing the encounter with a winning right.
They also look at the Alcaraz and Sinner in the fight for number one. To retain the crown, the Italian has to get a round further than the Spanish, or overcome it if they play the final.
