Rivalries, competition is good for the sportI just want to see Carlos kick some butt on the clay now.
Would be nice but don’t bank on itI just want to see Carlos kick some butt on the clay now.
I remember when Roanic wore a sleeve like that.
Lol Carlos. Just ask him.
Hope so.Finally good to see him back, now lets see if my prediction comes true. Alcaraz wins RG this year.
Hope so.
You have same prediction? Alcaraz dynasty at RG begins?
Some welcome news from Carlos, who had said following his match he wasn’t 100% comfortable with his right arm but this clarifies what he meant.
Translation:”I felt very good on the court. I haven't noticed anything on the forearm. Even if I don't want to, it's in my head. In every right hand, in every forced ball. I surprised myself with the level I played today. It was a very complete game."
He easily defeated Shevchenko 6-2, 6-1 today with some wonderful touch shots and it seemed that while his injury was playing on his mind, it certainly didn’t show. A pretty effortless and smooth performance today.
amazing improvment
9.3 was his backhand quality last night.
He will be the first player to win three in a row in Madrid if he wins here.
Carlos Alcaraz lost yesterday in the quarterfinals
That's more than sad; I'd say regretable Carlos played Madrid. Those kinda injuries cannot be rushed.
I felt pain after playing in Madrid, discomfort in my arm. Today I had some tests and I have muscle edema in the pronator teres, a consequence of my last injury. Unfortunately I won't be able to play in Rome. I need rest to recover and be able to play 100% pain-free
Poor Carlos, such bad luck to have all this happen during the clay season.
Probably because he doesn’t need to and he’s resting it for as long as possibleThe practice clips aren’t too encouraging since it seems he’s still not hitting his FH normally.
"His forearm is evolving" lol
“His forearm is evolving favorably and will travel next Wednesday, May 22 to Paris to play RG”
Hes not gonna be 100% thats for sure, we Will see

Which is incredibly stupid. Just like i said couple days ago. He will try to play through this injury instead of healing and recovering at 100%. We might get exact repeat of Madrid. He will end the tournament with another injury...Hes not gonna be 100% thats for sure, we Will see
I Hope not, his team probably has more info than us, in retrospect playing Madrid was a bad decisión but ultimately, the player has the last Word and he was feeling good, everything that happens will teach him something, but this is a strange tennis year so far, with sinner winning those many matches then injured, Alcaraz injured the whole clay season, rafa in a kind of farewell year, and djokovic on the decline, lets see the second part of the seasonWhich is incredibly stupid. Just like i said couple days ago. He will try to play through this injury instead of healing and recovering at 100%. We might get exact repeat of Madrid. He will end the tournament with another injury...

Unless you’ve some insider knowledge you can possibly know that. For all we know, he’s been checked and he no longer has fluid on his elbow.Which is incredibly stupid.

Yeah but he is still with that compresión thing, It obviously isnt totally gone, plus he has basically no rythm, so i dont see possible that he is 100% for Roland garros, doesnt mean that he cant win It, but hes gonna need to warm Up into the tournament and hope to not find anybody playing great that day, we Will seeUnless you’ve some insider knowledge you can possibly know that.

I know what you mean but it may be just a preventative thing to support the arm given it’s going to play on his mind. They do have the experience of what happened in Madrid so hopefully the situation is not what it was then. Fingers crossed.Yeah but he is still with that compresión things, It obviously isnt totally gone, plus he has basically no rythm, so i dont see possible that he is 100% for Roland garros, doesnt mean that he cant win It, but hes gonna need to warm Up into the tournament and hope to not find anybody playing great that day, we Will see
