Alcaraz Is Back: Why his worst tennis still wins!
Is Carlos Alcaraz really back? Alcaraz lost 7-5, 7-6 to unseeded Belgian Zizou Bergs in the Shanghai Masters round of 32 yesterday, just after defending his Japan Open title in Tokyo. This video was filmed before that match. I explain why his greatest quality is winning when he doesn’t play his best, why his level can be misleading, and what the end of the season (Shanghai, Paris Masters, ATP Finals) means for him, with Jannik Sinner absent. I also talk about his wrist, his US Open run, and the opportunity for Zverev and Shelton.
