The final was no different and the most impressive part was that he really did not show too many nerves. At times he would miss an easy shot but in general, he played a perfect match from start to finish. Gasquet was not sensational but the Frenchman played well enough.

However he never truly had a chance in the match and the score is an accurate representation of how the match went. Alcaraz dominated rallies and the match, winning his maiden title in impressive fashion. Congratulations.
