Alcaraz on sand in shape
The 2025 season was not long after Carlos Alcaraz’s requirements – until it went back to the red ash. There the 22-year-old found an impressive form and only won the Masters in Monte Carlo before number two in the world lost in the final of Barcelona Holger Rune. Madrid had to leave Alcaraz, but struck in Rome with his second Masters title of the season and a final victory over Jannik Sinner. In Paris, the right -handed man got rid of qualifying Giulio Zeppieri with a smooth success and ultimately defeated Fabian Maroszán in four rounds in round two. For the fifth time, the defending champion is in the third round for the fifth time in his fifth main field, but of course it should go much further for “Carlitos”.

Dzumhur already very satisfied
In 2019, Damir Dzumhur recently stood in the main field at the French Open and has not made it through the qualification since then. It is already a huge success for the 33-year-old.

There, the Bosnian initially defeated the Argentine Lucky Lucky Loser Tiago Agustin Tirante in four sets and then also number 31 on the seed list, Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard in four passes. So the right -handed man pulled the third round in Paris with his best performance on the Bois de Boulogne – as early as 2015 and 2018. In order to achieve a new record, the former world ranking 23. No less than defending champion Carlos Alcaraz.
