Carlos Alcaraz will play the final of the Queen's Club Championship against Alex de Minaur, and he has the chance to reclaim the world No. 1.
The young star has been showcasing his exceptional skills on grass. Alcaraz has displayed an impressive level of tennis throughout the tournament, securing victories against Arthur Rinderknech, Jiri Lehecka, Grigor Dimitrov, and Sebastian Korda.
"Right now I feel like I'm playing for 10 years on grass, it's something crazy for me," said Alcaraz, who is playing just his third tournament on the surface and entered London with a 4-2 grass-court record. "I didn't expect to adapt my movement, my game so fast on grass. I'm really happy with that," Alcaraz said.
Carlos Alcaraz will compete in the final with the mission of reclaiming the world No. 1 ranking from Novak Djokovic. Since winning the 2022 US Open, Alcaraz has lost the top spot three times to Djokovic and will aim to regain it once again in the Queen's final against Australian player Alex de Minaur:
"It's going to be a big challenge for me. His game is really good on grass," Alcaraz claimed.
"He serves so flat. He's going to be very dangerous here on grass,” he added.
Alcaraz has reached his first final on grass and has the opportunity to win his 11th title, which would be his fifth of 2023.
"I'm playing great, I'm feeling great.”
"I'm really happy to play here in Queen's. Since the first match, I feel the love from the crowd. I would say that it's impossible to win these kind of matches without them, without the energy they bring to me," Alcaraz concluded.
Alcaraz and De Minaur will play this Sunday, June 25th, starting at 13:30 hrs on the Centre Court at Queen's.
