The controversy over exhibition matches seems to have no end, and Carlos Alcaraz, who will have two this December, against Joao Fonseca and Frances Tiafoe, has wanted to explain the reason for his participation in these types of events: "For me, the biggest difference is that in a tournament you have to maintain focus, and it is demanding both physically and mentally. An exhibition is just one day. You only have to keep focused, warm up and train a little, all for just one match. An exhibition can be interpreted in different ways. You can do it just for fun, play good tennis, hit nice shots, and have fun. Or you can take it very seriously and use tactics and patterns to replicate them in tournaments. I will try to take these matches seriously, but at the same time have as much fun as possible," he stated in comments to Associated Press.
