Distrust, frustration, and doubts. That's what Carlos Alcaraz will have to deal with in the fourth Grand Slam of the year. The Spaniard will seek the conquest of the US Open 2024 without arriving in the dreamed way, but with the ambition to overturn the tough experience at the ATP Cincinnati 2024. It wouldn't be the first time that the Murcian raises his level significantly in a major event after a previous tour with doubts.

If there's one thing Carlos Alcaraz has shown in his career, it is that he has a special ability to overcome tough times and quickly learn from his mistakes. One can hardly reproach a tennis player with his track record, and nothing could overshadow the impressive season of the Murcian, with two Grand Slam titles under his belt. However, being destined to make history entails very high responsibilities and demands, so every defeat generates a wave of reactions, most of them disproportionate.

- Alcaraz will arrive at the US Open 2024 without competitive rhythm on hard court and with the distrust from what happened in Cincinnati

Losing in the first round of a Masters 1000 is very unusual for Carlos, doing it against a veteran like Monfils, even less, and losing control on the court by breaking a racket is something that had never been seen. From there, if someone has to worry about Alcaraz's reaction, it's his rivals. Each setback experienced by the Murcian has been the prelude to a magnificent comeback, something he will seek at Flushing Meadows.

Cramps against Djokovic at Roland Garros preceded his title at Wimbledon, the painful losses against Norrie and Paul in the 2022 US tour were followed by his first Grand Slam title a few weeks later, doubts about his elbow during the clay court tournaments this year were dispelled with glory in Paris, while losing to Draper at Queen's did not prevent him from reaching Wimbledon 2024 and becoming the champion.

Following this resilience manual to the letter, Carlos Alcaraz emerges as the great hope to witness a new resurgence of the Murcian at the US Open 2024. He will arrive without a single victory in previous tournaments, lacking the desired competitive rhythm, and knowing that in the semifinals, he might face Sinner or Djokovic. However, he will also face this challenge with the enthusiasm to leave behind the bad feelings and the self-assurance that comes from having overcome challenges just as complex or even more than the one looming in New York.
