Alcaraz Debuts with Victory at Queen’s and Dispels Doubts
London – Spanish tennis player Carlos Alcaraz, after his victory at Roland Garros and a period of rest, demonstrated his good form at the Queen’s tournament by defeating Australian Adam Walton with a score of 6-4 and 7-6 (4).
Alcaraz’s victory dispels any doubts about his physical condition and his adaptation to the grass season.
The match, which was initially going to be against his compatriot Alejandro Davidovich, who withdrew due to illness, presented an unexpected change. Walton, who entered as a “lucky loser”, could not avoid the Spaniard’s superiority.
Despite Walton’s limited experience on grass, Alcaraz displayed a solid game, showing that the rest period served him well and that his preparation for the grass tour is underway.
Alcaraz, seeking advice, prepared with Jordan Thompson before the match.
With this victory, Alcaraz now has fourteen consecutive victories, including the Rome, Roland Garros, and his debut at Queen’s tournaments. His record on grass is notable, with 25 wins and only three losses.
Alcaraz’s next rival will come from the match between Thompson and the Spaniard Jaume Munar, who will face each other later at Queen’s.
