Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz’s words displace everyone
Carlos Alcaraz doesn’t think about undermining Jannik Sinner
The rusts of the last part of last season seem like a distant memory for Carlos Alcaraz, who between Rotterdam and Indian Wells has shown that he has regained the rhythm of his best days, if we exclude the empty passage in Qatar. Going deep into the tournaments è important for the Murcian in terms of ranking, given the forced stop of Jannik Sinner, but è Alcaraz himself to displace fans and insiders, admitting that he does not think about it much.
"I am not focusing on the possibility of going back to first in the ranking,” the Murcian said in a press conference after his success in the round of 16 at the Indian Wells Masters 1000 against Grigor Dimitrov.
It is certainly not an obsession, my only goal is to play well and win as many matches as possible. I am in Indian Wells to win the tournament".
"I feel good,” added Alcaraz, “I want to keep playing like this and the results will keep coming. The ranking è just a consequence of the results, if I win the score will improve. I should not aim to get back to number one right away, I risk putting too much pressure on myself".
"Let's see how it will end up here and then how it will go in Miami, let's think match by match" he then concluded Alcaraz, who also in the Florida tournament, where last year he stopped in the quarterfinals, could make up points on Jannik Sinner, with the latter waiting for mid-April to return to training and the month of May to resume competitions, as provided by the agreement with Wada.
