The Murcian defeated Dutchman Tallon Griekspoor at Wimbledon on Wednesday
The young Spanish tennis player recognized that every day he feels more comfortable on the grass
Carlos Alcaraz, who is already in the third round at Wimbledon, said that in each match he tries to “make a point” and that tennis needs players of all kinds. The Murcian defeated the Dutchman on Wednesday Tallon Griekspoorwith a higher level than the one he showed in his debut.
“The hours on the court that I have spent on grass help to find you better and better. I don’t know how to tell you (why he played better), it’s the feeling I have of being a little more used to moving around here better“, The Spaniard pointed out at a press conference.
alcarazwho made real points during his victory against Griekspoor, assured that it is something that he tries to do in each game. “I try to score a point in every game. I had the opportunity to score a point and I hit a one-handed backhand. Let’s hope that in the third round he can do another one like that.”
“I think people like points that are not so common, like the ones I did in the first round or the one I did this time. Tennis needs players of all kinds, dynamic tennis players who can score points in any way and guys of another style. You need a variety of players,” he added.
The Murcian explained that on his day off he was playing golf and that on Thursday he would like to be able to see the city and the most important places in London. In addition, the Spaniard talked about his relationship with social networks and how he uses Twitter to connect with his fans.
“I like to have a relationship with the fans, with the people who encourage me. I try to interact with them. They encourage me, so a support for that is that I encourage them to do so. I am a close person. I try to convey closeness“.
alcaraz played his first match on court 1, where he also played in 2021, and the second on court 2, but He has not yet set foot in the center, something he hopes to achieve soon. “It’s something I’m looking forward to, but at the moment there are people with more names than me who deserve to be in the center back. I’m still growing and I feel lucky to be able to play in number 1, in number 2… I hope to be able to play in the plant one day,” he concluded.
