"In terms how he behaves, what he does on the court": Lajovic sees Alcaraz as close to Big Three

According to Dusan Lajovic, Carlos Alcaraz is close to Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer in terms of his behaviour which includes multiple things.

Lajovic had a chance to play Alcaraz earlier this year on clay in South America and while he put up a great fight, the Spaniard ultimately proved better and prevailed. It was a nice experience for the Serbian as he was able to witness personally just what makes Alcaraz so special. In an interview with CLAY magazine Alcaraz:

"He is probably one of the best competitors out there, apart from the big three and the guys that have been in another level through out the years. He is very close to them in terms how he behaves, what he does on the court. The harder the moment, the more he thrives."

Lajovic added:

"He enjoys these moments differently and he lets everything go when the match is tense. That’s why we see so many highlights shots from him when is an important moment of the match. This is what makes him really difficult to play."

Lajovic also predicted that Alcaraz is on the track of becoming one of the best players in history:

"He is already a great player, and I feel he is on that path to be greater. I mean, to be one of the bests. Being so young at the top of the world is probably something that influenced him differently. It is interesting to see that new challenges await him."
