Carlos Alcaraz Reaches Paris Olympics Tennis Final
Star Spanish tennis player Carlos Alcaraz advanced to the final of the men’s singles tennis event at the Paris Olympics by defeating Canada’s Felix Auger-Aliassime in the semi-final on Friday. Alcaraz won 6-1, 6-1 in straight sets at the Court Philippe Chatrier.
The Spaniard displayed his best performance of the season and became the youngest player to reach the men’s singles gold medal match. After the match, Alcaraz said, “It’s going to be a really special moment for me, in my life, in my career, so I’m going to try and enjoy this moment because it’s going to be really difficult. It’s going to be difficult, but it’s going to be special… I will try to be focused on myself and try not to hear all this, all the fans, all the people that say ‘I’m going to win’. I just want to give 100 per cent my best tennis and hopefully I reach my goal to get the gold.”
Earlier in the quarterfinal match, former World No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz won against United States’ Tommy Paul on Thursday. The Spaniard won the match 6-3, 7-6(7) against the American. His semifinal clash was against either Norway’s Casper Ruud or Canada’s Felix Auger-Aliassime.
Alcaraz won the first set easily, outclassing Paul 6-3. In the second set, he was trailing 2-5 but went on to win the game in the tie-breaker with a scoreline of 7-6. There is a possibility that Alcaraz could face Serbia’s Novak Djokovic if both win their remaining matches in the ongoing mega event.
