Corentin Moutet will be Carlos Alcaraz's opponent in the third round of the Australian Open 2026. The French tennis player has a personality that matches his tennis: rebellious. On the court, he is unpredictable, and in everyday life, he does not hesitate to speak out when he deems it necessary, as he did when expressing his opinion on the bad press that French tennis players receive.

Moutet appeared on the podcast 'The Elevate House' to discuss various topics, among which he highlighted his opinion on the media and the unfair treatment that tennis players face in France. In his case, his controversies on the court have made numerous headlines, but his speech was more focused on a general issue that they have been facing for generations.

Corentin Moutet, upcoming opponent of Carlos Alcaraz, explains why the press is unfair to French tennis players

"The media are harsh on French players, very critical; they praise us when we play well and criticize us when we play poorly, there is a strong culture of the moment. I notice it a lot with the older generation (Tsonga, Monfils...), the media kept saying that they had not won a Grand Slam and, therefore, they did not have a great career. So people believe it," Moutet acknowledged.

His frustration does not stem from the criticism per se but from the consequences, arguing that "when I talk to people at dinners, they ask me why the French do not win, and I respond that it's because they do not see it, because they do win. Tsonga reached the final in Melbourne, even Arnaud Clément reached a Grand Slam final, everyone has reached Grand Slam semifinals, they played the Masters."

Since the early days of tennis, France has played a crucial role in the sport's development, and generation after generation has showcased to the world new talents that have left their mark in one way or another. However, according to Moutet, the press fails to fully realize this. "They were exceptional athletes, and I think the media do not give them enough credit; they do not support their athletes enough," he concluded.
