Carlos Alcaraz confirms he will play in Basel: "The number 1 has been complicated, it will be difficult, but I want to try"

Carlos Alcaraz has not had a very successful Asian tour. He was eliminated by Jannik Sinner in the semifinals of the China Open and in the round of 16 of the Shanghai Masters by Grigor Dimitrov.
Despite this, and a season with a very tight schedule, he is still dreaming of finishing the year as world No. 1. He is currently 500 points behind Novak Djokovic in the ATP Race (8945 vs. 8445).

Thus, the Spaniard has decided not to rest and compete in the ATP 500 in Basel next week to try to catch up with the Serb before facing the Paris Masters. He has said it in a press conference in statements picked up by Punto de Break after his defeat against Dimitrov:
"It's been complicated for me to finish the year as No. 1, but I will try to do my best in Basel, which will be my next tournament. It's going to be difficult but I want to try."

- As for ITIA -- who, or what entity, oversees this untrustworthy organization?? Too many recent cases of suspensions over tests proving minimal stats at best. Neither Iga nor Simona showed even a hint at prolonged use. Sinner, we don't know because the secrecy was extreme. Now we find ITIA flat-out LIED about speaking directly with the manufacturer of the drug in question associated with Iga. Are we to believe ITIA can be trusted? Not according to the past few years of questionable corporate conduct. ITIA can no longer be trusted to fairly regulate nor investigate itself... so who or what will??mandoist06-12-2024
