The level displayed by Carlos Alcaraz against Roman Safiullin has intimidated all his direct rivals in the tournament. It was expected that the Spanish tennis player would return with doubts and lacking rhythm, but he dominated the Russian player and showed that special players like him don’t need warm-up matches. Obviously, there are still things to refine, but playing like this is exciting and promising for going far in New York.
His opponent in the next round will be Jaime Faria, who just won in five sets against a tough opponent like Jenson Brooksby and is having a good North American tour. In fact, at the Cincinnati ATP, the Portuguese player had to play qualifiers and went on to win 5 matches in a row to reach the round of 16, making him a dangerous rival for Alcaraz, who aims to enjoy playing and avoid physical setbacks after his tough experiences.
