Alcaraz confesses what was the key aspect in his victory over Draper
Carlos Alcaraz sweated to defeat Jack Draper at the ATP Rome 2025, one of the best players of the moment. And after his victory, he explained court-side what the key was to beating the British player: "The most important thing I did today was not to think about whether I was ahead or behind, just trying to do what makes me happy on the court. Trying to play aggressively, hit good shots, drop shots, come to the net. That's what I like to do on the court. I think that made the difference today. I played at a very high pace throughout the match. I didn't let him dominate or stay in rallies for too long. I think that was a great weapon for me today. I am very proud of how I faced the match," says Alcaraz, who awaits Lorenzo Musetti or Alexander Zverev in the semifinals.
