World no. 2 Carlos Alcaraz He is the most creative player in the world.
Lighting on three championship points today, Alcaraz created a return to the ages.
A protected Alcaraz aroused the greatest return in the history of Roland Garros World Dueling Nr. 1 Jannik sinful 4-6, 6-7 (4), 6-4, 7-6 (3), 7-6 (2) to successfully defend his title Roland Garros in a wonderful and epic final.
The longest French finale in history was an exciting journey of five hours, 29-minute, that without Alcaraz to improve in life 5-0 in the Grand Slam finals, while Sinner suffered his first major loss. Alcaraz is the first man in the final history of French Open to save three championship points and capture the championship.
Then the former World no. 1 Juan Carlos FerreroAlcaraz’s tall coach admitted that he was not predicting that Alcaraz was ready to retrieve the return of the century while sitting in the box.
“I will not say that I believe he was able to recover from that 5-3, love-40,” Ferrero told Paris. “But once again with Carlos. Everything is possible, and he did it again. The amazing achievement (ment).”
The former French champion open Ferrero said the super power of Alcaraz is uninterrupted itself -confidence.
In fact, the coach shared that Alcaraz pumped his box by shaking his racuet to Ferrero after holding the championship points while serving the love-40, 3-5 in the fourth set.
“Yes, I think his strength is believing all the time until the last ball is gone,” Ferrero said. “And he tries to try. It was one thing he was love-40 in the fourth, this 5-3, and he looks at me and still makes me like this with Racquet (Shakes Racquet), as I say, I’m still here, saying vamos.”
Indeed, showing strength and durability, Alcaraz raised his five-set record to 13-1, including a 4-0 mark in five-determination.

Alcaraz Credits “his second father”, former French champion Open Ferrero, for his help to achieve his great dreams.
“Everything I did is thanks to him,” Alcaraz told Ferrero. “I have learned a lot from him not only in the professional part, even the personal part. He is my second father, so he is really an important person to me.
“Everything I came first, he was experienced at that moment, you know, and I learned how to get in many difficult moments, you know the first things about everything.”
In today’s fifth frenetic set, Ferrero said that Alcaraz’s courage to continue dismissal was important.

The manufacturer’s intestines of all judges to go and live and die with the consequences is a quality that cannot be learned, Ferrero said.
“Of course I think he was born to play these kinds of moments,” Ferrero said. “Whenever we stay in these situations, even when he was younger in the challenger, at 250, at 500, when he had great opportunities for him at those ages, he always went for him.
“In this kind of situation is of course much more important than maybe other shifts. But his style of play again I think should be the same.
“Something something we try to prepare his mind for these kinds of situations, as perhaps the connection to the fifth set. He went to him from the first point. Very brave all the time and very aggressive trying to win the point all the time.”
