Carlos Alcaraz votes Rafael Nadal: “His farewell is more important than the Davis Cup.”
Carlos Alcaraz already looks at Davis Cup and votes for Rafael Nadal
It did not è go as Carlos Alcaraz would have hoped, who ends his adventure in Turin with one win and two losses. One acceptable, today’s against a great Alexander Zverev, another decidedly less so for a player of his caliber, against a Casper Ruud who was in great crisis of results and who only needs to win a set tonight against Andrey Rublev to be sure of facing Jannik Sinner tomorrow night in the semifinals (8:30 pm).
"I have to grow a lot in this part of the season", said the Spaniard, however, smiling at the press conference. "I miss home and loved ones at this time of the’year", says Carlitos, although now è the most special tournament is coming up: the Davis Cup.
"È definitely more important was Nadal’s farewell than the Davis Cup, which there’è every year” – answers the world No. 3 when asked which of the two was the most important thing. "No one more than Rafa deserves to end his career with a title and Davis è one of those I have always dreamed of. Just in Davis for him è it all started, it would be very special", says Carlitos.
As for his stay in Turin the Iberian explains, "It's been a difficult week, I struggled with some physical problems. At the same time forò è it was a beautiful tournament, è a privilege to be here and I will tryò anyway to learn something". Now, forò, the focus è shifted to the big event in Malaga.
