Alcaraz's opinion on having Musetti in his group and not Djokovic: "I'm honest, I prefer Lorenzo"

Carlos Alcaraz spoke at a press conference after overcoming the first obstacle in the Nitto ATP Finals, defeating Alex De Minaur in two sets. The Spaniard knew he had a pending match in the group stage with Novak Djokovic, until the Serbian decided to withdraw from the tournament yesterday, and Lorenzo Musetti took his place. What do you think of this change, Carlos?

"Obviously, having someone like Novak in the group is always tough, due to his experience in the tournament and how good he is indoors. I lost to him here in 2023, even though I played very well, he killed me that day (laughs). But yes, to be honest, I prefer Lorenzo, I won't lie (laughs). If he's here, it's because he deserves it; his level throughout the year was very high, and I'm convinced he will do very well here," Carlos assessed with a smile.
