Carlos Alcaraz is already Roland Garros champion. He already has the title that has given so much joy to Spanish tennis. To Spanish sport. Because Rafa Nadal already has an heir. One who, at 21 years old, has won his third Grand Slam. One who, at 21 years old, has won the Musketeers Cup.
His first Musketeers Cup, with an excellent final in which he has shown that he has the character of a champion. That has winning DNA. Because Carlos, who started by winning the first set, saw how Alexander Zverev, his rival, turned everything around and put him in a more than complicated situation.
And the German seemed to be doing better. He seemed to have more confidence. It seemed that he was winning that moral battle against the one from Murcia in the land of Paris. But Alcaraz is Alcaraz. Alcaraz is the one who won the US Open a couple of years ago. The one who defeated Djokovic at Wimbledom. The one who doesn’t give up. The one that didn’t collapse at Philippe Chatrier.
He had no choice but to punch the table in the fourth set. It was all or nothing. And the bet turned out perfectly. Because what a wiggle he gave to Zverev. Because what two final sets were scored. He didn’t give the German any option… and everything seemed like a matter of time.
He broke his serve when he played. She moved him as he wanted through the sand of Paris. From possible disaster to 6-1 in the fourth set. In the fifth Zverev already knew that there was no way to beat Carlos.
Alcaraz put ‘beast mode’ in the land of Paris and won the match. In the first option he had, champion. Roland Garros champion. Champion of his third Grand Slam. This is how we experienced the final between Zverev and Alcaraz at the Philippe Chatrier.
