“It’s not great to win a match like this. Lorenzo is a great player," Alcaraz said following the conclusion of the game.

“I wish him all the best, and wish him a quick recovery and hope to see him soon on the court."

“The first two sets were really tough," the Spaniard continued.

“When I won the second set, I was relieved. Then in the third set, I knew what I had to do. I knew I could push him to the limit by just keep being aggressive."

“I managed to be myself, be more calm, I could see much clearer and play great tennis," the 22-year-old added.
