Two wins from the Madrid title defence ⚔️🇪🇸 @carlosalcaraz rallies from 2-5 down in the second set to beat Khachanov 6-4 7-5! #MMOpen
Carlos Alcaraz is only one match away from going to the Madrid Open final after beating Karen Khachanov 6-4 7-5 in the quarter-final to book the semi-final.
Alcaraz has been performing really well this week in Madrid and today was another one of those. He took another player that has been playing very good tennis for a while and defeated him in two sets. The first set was quite normal in the sense that it went largely as expected. Both of them served well and played well hitting over 10 winners.
The key difference was that Alcaraz played the crucial rallies a tiny bit better saving the only break point he faced while converting one of the four he had on his opponent's serve. The second set saw however the Spaniard struggled a little bit because Khachanov was very good in that one. The Russian held a 5-2 lead when the match unravelled for him.
Alcaraz went on a hot streak winning five games in a row though Khachanov helped him greatly towards the end with a few errors. A lucky bounce awarded him a break point and a forehand error by Khachanov sealed it.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
