🎾 **Alcaraz’s Miami Misstep: A Tough Break for the Tennis Ace** 🎾
Carlos Alcaraz, the world’s #1 tennis star, faced a surprising setback at the Miami Open. After a three-set nail-biter, he was sent packing by American Sebastian Korda. Typically dominant, Alcaraz seemed off his game, even expressing his frustration to coach Samuel Lopez, admitting, “I can’t do any more.”
Despite rallying to win the second set 7-5, Alcaraz couldn’t maintain his momentum and conceded in the third. As Korda advanced, Alcaraz candidly shared his need for a break, saying, “Chilling with my family, with my friends… reset my mind, reset the batteries, be ready for the clay season.”
This unexpected exit follows Alcaraz’s earlier defeat by Daniil Medvedev at Indian Wells. With the clay court season on the horizon, Alcaraz, who mesmerised fans with his comeback against Jannik Sinner last year, is eager to regain his form before defending his French Open title in May.
Korda, who has never beaten a world No.1 before, celebrated his Miami success, calling it “great” and remarking on the stress and challenge of the match. Now stepping into the round of 16, he’s set to face Martin Landaluce.
