Alcaraz flop in Miami: Djokovic pulls the same with Nadal!

The tennis world is shocked: Carlos Alcaraz, the young superstar from Spain, had to delete the sail in the second round at the ATP-Masters 1000 tournament in Miami. The 21-year-old, set in two, surprisingly lost to the Belgian veteran David Goffin 5: 7, 6: 4, 3: 6. Alcaraz himself was disappointed after the defeat and spoke of a "low level" of his performance. "I didn't play well and had heavier legs," admitted the Spanish third of the world ranking and added that he did not feel physically fit and insecure. Similar weaknesses already revealed themselves in the last week at Indian Wells when he fought in the semi-finals against Jack Draper and delivered one of the worst sentences of his career, such as Sport1 reported.

Novak Djokovic showed an impressive performance and secured the entry into the third round. The Serbian Grand Slam record winner convincingly defeated the Australian Rinky Hijikata 6: 0, 7: 6 (7: 1). With this victory, Djokovic equated with Rafael Nadal by celebrating his 410th Master 1000 victory and now shared the record of Nadal.

Djokovic, the six-time Miami winner, expressed that he wanted to show himself and his opponents that he can continue to play at the highest level. This performance is particularly noteworthy because Djokovic previously left Doha and Indian Wells at an early stage. In the next round, the Serb meets the Argentinian Camilo Ugo Carabelli, while Alcaraz has to face a critical phase in his career, such as laola1.at reported
