This was Alcaraz’s second successive Madrid Open title, and the fourth ATP Tour trophy of this season.

Speaking after his win over Struff, Alcaraz said the Madrid Open triumph is de facto explicit for him, together with that he’ll all the time bear in mind this sense. Alcaraz beat Struff 6-4 3-6 6-3 to win his tenth ATP Tour title of his career.

“For me it is so, so special. To lift the trophy here in Madrid. In my country, it is always special to play and to be able to do a good result here and [being] a champion is so special. In front of my home crowd, my family, my friends. Everyone close to me. For me it is a special feeling that I will never forget,” said Alcaraz.

He went on to say that Struff carried out correctly and was truly aggressive in the direction of him inside the closing. Struff upset Greek tennis star Stefanos Tsitsipas en path to the final word and rose to world amount 28 following his Madrid Open exploits.

“It was a extraordinarily highly effective match. Jan was participating in good, truly aggressive. In the second set I had a great deal of prospects to interrupt his serve and I didn’t take it and it was highly effective for me to lose it. I instructed myself that I wanted to be constructive regularly and that I might need my prospects and I really feel I did it inside the third set,” Alcaraz added.

20-year-old Alcaraz turned the youngest world main last September when he acquired the US Open and held that spot for 20 weeks until 22-time Grand Slam winner Novak Djokovic took it once more in January.
