The latest rival he faced was another compatriot, Jenson Brooksby, whom Fritz beat in straight sets, after 91 minutes of play. The No.5 in the ATP rankings had 13 aces without a single double fault, while his first serve was at 74%. Also, Fritz didn’t allow a single break, winning all 10 of his service games.
Carlos has lost just one match since the Wimbledon finals, and that was to Fritz at the Laver Cup, which is an exhibition tournament. Though, we are pretty sure he wants to get even. The sole set lost in Tokyo was against Casper Ruud in the semis.
Alcaraz’s previous rivals were Cerundolo, Baez, Bergs, and Brandon Nakashima, against whom he showed no mercy, dispatching each one in straight sets.
