This year, the player from Murcia arrives at the Australian Open eager to break his ceiling at the first Grand Slam of the season, where he has always stopped at the quarterfinals in the last two years. Luck has been on Carlitos's side, and if he performs at his best, it is likely that he reaches the second week and showcases his magic to achieve his best historical result in Melbourne.
It has always been said that Alcaraz's game can adapt very well to the conditions in Australia, as it is the fastest Grand Slam of all. The reason for not reaching the semis yet is that he was surprised twice in the quarterfinals where he was not at his best. Everything has changed from previous years, so we expect to see a sharp Carlitos eager to complete the Career Grand Slam.
As mentioned, his first opponent in Melbourne will be Adam Walton, a quick-handed and complete baseline player who may lack a decisive shot to put Carlitos in extreme difficulties, but playing in front of his home crowd may push him to give a bit more and potentially trouble the world number 1.
