"I enjoyed the match a lot" - Alcaraz after tight win over Struff

Carlos Alcaraz need a superb effort to defeat Jan-Lennard Struff at Wimbledon and it lasted over four hours with five sets played.

Competing for the second time at Wimbledon, Alcaraz raised his intensity and dug his heels in as he scampered around the baseline to hang in points, while he found moments of magic in the key moments to improve his five-set record to 5-1. He said:

“I enjoyed [the match] a lot. Great battle over four hours. For me [to] play on grass is so beautiful. I like to play on grass. I would say my level on grass has to improve a little bit. But I'm happy with my level today.”

He continued:

"I don't feel the pressure because I don't rank myself as one of the favourites to win this tournament," Alcaraz said when discussing his title chances following his win. Obviously if I play well, I have [the] level to win the tournament. But there are a lot more experienced players on grass. I don't feel the pressure."
