The point of the year? Alcaraz’s magical resource that generated the ovation in Monte-Carlo

Carlos Alcaraz (3rd of the world ranking) You can be living a moment of inconsistency in your career. In fact, he admitted to having felt the pressure of the absence of Jannik Sinner (1st), who has been sanctioning for doping for two months (there are three in total).

However, despite some fluctuations in his game, Spanish usually gets the best every time he enters the court. And, hardly, a game of his pass inadvertently. So much so that in the round of 16 of the MASTERS 1000 DE MONTE-CARLODaniel Altmaier (84º) won a point that is on its way to being one of the best of the year.

Pressing and with a chance of break against, Alcaraz had to take 30/40 to prevent his rival from breaking his serve at the start of the match (the score was 1-0 for the German). While connected a good first with power, he received a great deep return, which forced him to go back several meters from the baseline. In that sense, the 21 -year -old Murcia quickly spent the defense attack.

Now, beyond the location on the court, Carlitos reached the Drop of the German and played a contradrop that seemed winner. However, Altmaier reached him and sent a setback parallel to the bottom. Of course, for Spanish there are no impossible: He reached the ball and hit a great parallel Willy that modified the order of the point.

Then, a powerful cross upside down ended the resistance of the German, who surrendered to the talent of the four times Grand Slam champion. The public present in the main stadium of Monte-Carlo broke his hands to applaud one of the points that will compete for being the best of the season.
