Alcaraz will face Jack Draper in the quarter -finals in Madrid. He was upset by Brit to Indian Wells. Draper then continued to win the crown of his daughters in the California desert.
“I will try to start the game much better than I did in Indian Wells just at more pace, not making a lot of mistakes. I just try to get into the match and we’ll see,” said Alcaraz, who possesses a 3-2 head-to-head advantage over the draper in general.
“But I think we will both try to play aggressively. Who’s better will win.”
