Carlos Alcaraz is already in Valencia to play the group stage of the Davis Cup 2024. Spain has a very complicated task in the Fuente de San Luis Pavilion.

This Wednesday, September 11 will debut against the Czech Republic of Jiri Lehecka, Tomas Machac and Jakub Mensik. On Friday 13th they will play against the always tough France. And on Sunday, September 15, they will have the mission of facing Australia, last year's finalist before losing to Jannik Sinner's Italy.

He arrives after a North American tour on hard court where he could hardly have done worse. He lost to Gael Monfils in his debut at the Cincinnati Open (6-4, 6-7(5), 4-6) in a match that was stopped a couple of times due to rain. And he could not get past the second round at the US Open, where he was beaten by Botic van de Zandschulp in three sets by 6-1, 7-5, 6-4.

"Right now, the truth is that I'm doing quite well. Obviously, after the defeat in New York, well, there were a couple of days like that, bad, but it was clear that we had to be back to the courts and training as soon as possible and the truth is that I've been training for several days and with a pretty big motivation," said the world number 3.
