Alcaraz was at his scintillating best in Indian Wells final victory against Medvedev. One shot, in particular, was hard to believe...
It happens every time that guy Carlos Alcaraz takes the court. One outrageously zany point where he does something that people who have been watching tennis for decades will swear on the life of their favorite doubles partner that they have never seen before. And they are probably right because even as he muddled his way through the past six months or so, experiencing some version of a sophomore slump, Alcaraz has never failed to produce the spectacular.
The win gave Alcaraz his second consecutive title in what plenty of players and much of the sport consider the most important tournament that is not a Grand Slam. It was the 13th title of a career that is just getting going, even if the next time he claims the sport’s top ranking it will be his second go at No 1. In 2022, at 19, he became the youngest player ever to get to the top of the rankings.
