After defeating 6-4 and 6-4 the Australian Álex de Miñaur in the final of the ATP 500 of Queen’s, Carlos Alcaraz returned to position himself in the first place of the world ranking for the start of Wimbledon and assured to be “one of the favorites” to win in Inglaterra.La current season of Alcaraz is certainly remarkable, and with four titles until this Sunday, the tennis player is preparing for one of the toughest challenges of the year in London. However, in the search to maintain activity and braided in a tough fight for the No. 1 position in the ATP ranking with Novak Djokovic, the Spaniard added his first title on grass with an excellent game against De Minaur at Queen’s. Right now I feel like one of the favorites to win WimbledonSo it was that after beating by double 6-4 the Australian, who had surprised the public leaving out Andy Murray and Holger Rune -sixth in the world-, Alcaraz returned to the first place ahead of Wimbledon and will be the best seed. ” It helps a lot to arrive at Wimbledon as number one. It’s incredible, but once again it wouldn’t be possible without the support of all the people throughout the week,” he explained first. The Spaniard will be present for the third time at the Grand Slam in London, after two participations in which he did not exceed the fourth round. But this time, with the current level he maintains and an experience greater than his 20 years, he projects a good tournament. “I’m very confident right now heading into Wimbledon. I finished the week playing at a great level. To be honest, I need to gain more experience on grass. Even if I win the title, I’ve only played 11 games on grass in my career. After beating great players and with the level with which I have played, I consider myself as one of the favorites or as one of the tennis players capable of winning Wimbledon,” he said. On the other hand, leaving his own pride aside, Alcaraz recognized the chances of “Nole” at Wimbledon and established the Serb as the biggest candidate. Novak is the main favourite to win Wimbledon, that’s obvious, but I’m going to try to play at this level to have a chance of beating him or reaching the final. I have to play my best tennis. I will have my options, but I see Novak as the main favourite.”
