Carlos Alcaraz touched down in Turin with some uncertainties, but eager to find the best feelings on the indoor courts of the ATP Finals 2025 to try to go as far as possible. His early defeat at the ATP Rolex Paris Masters 2025 allowed Jannik Sinner to reclaim the number one spot in the ATP Ranking. 

Despite that unexpected outcome in the French capital, Carlos Alcaraz remains one of the main contenders for the trophy at these ATP Finals 2025 where he could once again snatch the world number one position from Jannik Sinner, who will try to defend the title.

Carlos Alcaraz clarifies his physical discomfort

"I am feeling much better and freer in my movements on the court every time. I will play with caution. Before, I also played with bandages, but it limited me a lot in my movements. Now we are gradually removing layers so that the ankle gains strength and stability. I am moving better and I am already sliding with my left leg, which indicates that I am looser and more confident," Alcaraz explained about these ankle issues, as reported by Marca.

These discomforts first arose during the first-round match of the ATP Tokyo 2025 tournament, and although the player from Murcia managed to win the event, these problems forced him to withdraw from the Masters 1000 Shanghai 2025. According to Carlos himself, the situation is improving, but they will continue to be concerned about this area of the body.

"We talked in Paris about training here, why not? We know each other well," explained Alcaraz as noted by As. "It is a privilege to train with him, it is one of the unique aspects of this tournament. There are eight players, the best ones, and you can train with them. It's not my case, but there are certain players who, upon seeing the group, do not want to train with those they will face later. For me, it is a great opportunity to be able to train with Jannik. It is not the first time and, surely, it will not be the last, we will not get any information, as we know each other more than enough, but we do give each other rhythm to start in a good way."

Carlos Alcaraz, on his defeat in Paris

"There can be bad days, but above all, it happened because the way I tactically approached the match was completely wrong. I didn't have good feelings, I went for the shots, forward, with misses from the start. The good thing about that is that it gave me the feedback to know what I needed to train, and I am putting it into practice these days to start well. I am not worried about that and we will try to prevent it from happening again."
