"He looked like he was 19 for the first time in a while" - John McEnroe on Carlos Alcaraz

Carlos Alcaraz struggled quite a bit against Alexander Zverev at Roland Garros losing the match in the end in four sets.

It was a solid match from Alcaraz but as John McEnroe pointed out after the match, ALcaraz struggled to solve the problems that Zverev was giving him. McEnroe said:

“It was the first time in a while he looked his age, the first time for a while he looked like he was 19. He didn’t seem exactly to know what to do with Zverev."
