Un Gran Regreso 🙌 @carlosalcaraz makes his return to the tour in style, taking out Djere 6-2 4-6 6-2 to book a spot in the quarterfinals against Lajovic! #ArgOpen2023
Alcaraz returns to action in Buenos Aires, seals triumphant victory in three sets
ATPThursday, 16 February 2023 at 06:28
After a long injury lay off, Carlos Alcaraz is back on the tour with the US Open champion and former World No.1 playing at Argentina Open Buenos Aires this week.
It was a winning return for Alcaraz who saw off Laslo Djere 6-2 4-6 6-2 in the early hours of Thursday morning to move through to a tie with Dusan Lajovic.
The 19-year-old raced to a 3-1 lead. But he could not win a superb second set that included 15 combined break points, none of which were converted until Djere sealed the set himself.
Any disappointment was quelled with an immediate break putting Alcaraz back in command. Like in the opening set, he did not face a break point in the decider and surged to a superb win.

- 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".
