"It has been a really complete match from my side": Alcaraz pleased to battle windy conditions to seal latest Roland Garros win

Carlos Alcaraz produced another spectacular performance to down Taro Danielin four sets leaving the court fully satisfied with the way he played.

Alcaraz is not playing his best tennis right now but he's certainly playing at a high level. A level good enough to take down some solid players comfortably. This match was for the most part really good. The only minor complaint was the second set where his play was too erratic at times. He wasn't as focused as generally is with the ball sailing wide too many times.

After the match, Alcaraz was happy with his performance overall:

“Yeah, I’m really happy with the level that I played today. I mean, overcome the problems that was in the match because the windy and, yeah, it has been a really complete match from my side, and I’m really happy with that.”

To get properly ready for the event, Alcaraz travelled to Vienna in order to practice in widy conditions which can happen at Roland Garros. Today was such a day and it was tough to get used with the practices in Vienna helping overall with it:

“Well, is tough, you know, but I could say that I’m a player who plays really well with the wind. I practice in Vienna that has a lot of windy, a lot of days, you know, and I’m used to play with windy, let’s say. It’s tough, because you play two games with windy, plus windy, and two games against windy, and it’s really tough to adapt your game into that. You know, I tried to, you know, to play as best as I can, you know, with the windy. Today I think I played a good level with that.”

Up next is Shapovalov for him:

"I have never played against him. But I practiced in Barcelona with him. But everybody knows his level. It’s going to be really difficult, really difficult match. I have to be ready on that, really focused on his shots. But as I said a lot of times, I always try not to, you know, think about the opponent. I always try to think about me, about myself, you know, about my game, and try to put it into the match."
