The environment of Carlos Alcaraz does not dramatize. Samuel Lopez analyzed the current situation of the ranking, which could undergo important changes starting with the Monte Carlo Masters 1000.

The coach stressed that the team takes the pressure for the world throne naturally. “It is a topic that we have to talk about, something that is commented on, but Carlos understands perfectly that this can happen and that it does not represent any drama.“said López in an interview with Eurosport Spain.

“He’s been through this before. In the end, being No. 1 or No. 4… What really matters is feeling that you are evolvingthat you are prepared for the big moments and that you are still capable of winning titles.

For the coach, the ranking is a long-distance race: “The first place is the result of consistency throughout the year. At different times one defends points and then the other. In the end, whoever finishes at the top will be the one who deserves it; we should not give it more importance than it has.”

Carlos Alcaraz had a spectacular start to the season with 16 consecutive victoriesincluding the Australian Open and Doha titles. However, after falling in the semifinals of Indian Wells and in the third round of Miamihis advantage has been reduced.

Jannik Sinner arrives on a roll. The Italian is only 1,190 points behind Alcaraz and defends few points in the next month. Instead, the Spaniard has the challenge of defending the title in Monte Carlo, the final in Barcelona and, later, the points from Rome and Roland Garros.
