Alcaraz compared himself to Iga Świątek

Spanish tennis player Carlos Alcaraz points out that he is aware of how difficult it will be for him to keep the number 1 spot on the ATP list, but believes that he will be able to withstand the pressure.

-” It still sounds like a dream to me. To be honest, I’m still crazy. I still wonder if I am really the first tennis player in the world. It’s like I’m dreaming.” – began Carlos and continued:

-” I played so many tournaments after that that I didn’t quite manage to summarize my impressions after the US Open. Of course, it is a great success for me. But I can say that nothing has changed me,” added Alcaraz.

Carlos is on the throne with 6,820 points, followed by Rafael Nadal with 6,020 and Casper Ruud with 5,820…

-” Everyone wants to beat the world’s number one tennis player. I could feel it after the US Open, everyone wanted to play with me. I have to be ready for that.”

And then he compared himself to Iga Świątek.

-” She had an incredible year, breaking the record for the number of consecutive victories in this century. That is magnificent. I would like to be like her, not to lose the first position, but that is impossible. It is certain that I will fall, but the point is to get back up after that.” – concluded Carlos Alcaraz.
