Sensational in Rome: Carlos Alcaraz eliminated by #135 ranking.
Carlos Alcaraz is out of the Internazionali d’Italia
The third-round matches of the Internazionali d’Italia present a resounding surprise: in fact, Carlos Alcaraz has been eliminated from the tournament being held at the Foro Italico by ATP ranking number 135, the Hungarian Fabian Maroszan.
The Murcian’s lesser-ranked opponent won 6-3, 7-6(4), in an hour and forty-two minutes of play. That Alcaraz was not on his day was immediately apparent: immediately down by a break after four games, the Madrid Masters 1000 winner let the first set go without being able to fight back, while in the second he was good at recovering a break disadvantage but eventually succumbed at the tie-break.
