Carlos Alcaraz ended his participation in the One Point Slam in the round of 16, losing to Maria Sakkari. It was due to a failed drop shot, a shot that has brought the Murcian many successes. How to take this defeat? With irony and good vibes, as it could not be otherwise. "The drop shot is my shot, I don't know what happened, honestly. It has never let me down, not even in my toughest moments, but today it didn't work," he said with a smile after falling to the Greek.
