Bautista Agut: "Carlos Alcaraz among the favorites at the US Open 2022"

Recently Roberto Bautista Agut talked about Carlos Alcaraz and his chences at the US Open 2022, the last Grand Slam of the season and the event that closes the US hard-court swing. He explained about his young countryman and his prospects on the US swing: "I am recovering from the wrist injury, I will be careful during the US tour.

Montreal comes first, I want to be there since it hasn't been played since 2019. I place Alcaraz up there with the best players, he is among the favorites in view of the US Open." Even one of the idols of the house Denis Shapovalov, who arrived at the Media Day of the Canadian Master 1000, spoke about the Spanish in a press conference: "I try to be positive, I tell myself in every moment that things will change and the work will pay off.

The match against De Miñaur will be very interesting. Carlos? He is a good guy, humble and I have no doubt that he will be a great champion in the short term. I consider him a good role model for young people."

What Alcaraz his getting in this season

Carlos Alcaraz, one of the most talked about tennis players and on the lips of many in the ATP circuit.

The Spanish tennis player was undoubtedly amazed at how he managed to make a difference on the entire tour in such a short time, a sign of immense talent and how he can soon reach the top of the ranking. The qualities available to the Iberian are many and his playing style also has the characteristics to entertain the spectators, since he absolutely does not disdain the net descents and volleys from any part of the court A boy capable of exploiting almost every opportunity he had and created during the 2022 season: the semifinal at Indian Wells and immediately after the victory at the Master 1000 in Miami were unforgettable; on clay, a surface on which he exalts himself, he was able to conquer Barcelona and Madrid, even beating the Serbian champion Novak Djokovic.

The first and only difficulties accused, certainly understandable for a boy of just 19, recently arrived in Hamburg and Umag, tournaments in which he went to the final without winning, defeated by the Italians Lorenzo Musetti and Jannik Sinner, almost the only ones together with Matteo Berrettini able to find the countermeasures to beat him.
