Spaniard will need to be on top form in Sunday’s final in Paris to join ranks of three-time grand-slam winners
ven for the most precocious and gifted tennis players, great careers do not develop without suffering.
Although Alcaraz begins as favourite on Sunday, this will be an immense challenge. So far in the Spaniard’s young career, his matches against Alexander All of Alcaraz’s four victories have been extremely one-sided and finished in straight sets. Each of them were exhibitions of his brilliance as he dismantled Zverev by completely overpowering him in the baseline exchanges, exposing his deep-court positioning with his drop shots and net play, and feasting on his opponent’s second serve.and at the French Open in 2022, those occasions have turned into long nights for Alcaraz.
