Jannik seemed satisfied at the end of the match: on the pitch he began to see the fruits of his work with his team. Carlos had to give up this time, but he is already thinking about the next challenges: “I hope our rivalry will become the most important on the circuit in the next few years”
“Today I played a game of a very high level. The victory against Isner gave me a lot of confidence and my tennis is improving day by day.” Confidence and awareness transpire from Jannik’s words after the success on Alcaraz. It seems that the time has come to reap the rewards: “Playing for three or four hours at this level is not easy. Simone and I worked hard to reach this goal.”
Towards the quarters
–
“I am very happy to have shown all my worth, now I have a whole day to rest, regain my strength and return to the pitch strong to face the next opponent. The moment that decided the match was the game at 3-1 of the fourth set that I saved from 0-40. When you serve well, you play the response games much more relaxed and this was another key to the game. The serve helped me a lot and all 7 break points I canceled I they loaded more and more. It was an unforgettable day. ”
First time
–
“I ate before 1pm, then I went to the locker room and watched on TV the spectacle of all those champions who have won here at Wimbledon. Entering Center Court after all those players who have made history was very emotional. It was my first time in this temple and I didn’t even know which way to enter. It was all very special. “
Alcaraz thinks about the future
–
At the end of the match the Spaniard recognized the merits of the blue: “I have a lot of respect for him because we are friends, he is a good person, both on and off the pitch. He deserved to win because every time I had the opportunity to go ahead Jannik played the important points better than me. ” And thinking about the future Carlitos has clear ideas: “I hope our rivalry will become the most important on the circuit in the next few years. For my part I will try to become the best tennis player in the world and obviously Jannik will try to do the same too. I’m sure that he will remain at the top for many years. I like playing against him, we hope in the future to be able to fight to win all the major tournaments. “
