Paris Masters 1000: Discover Alcaraz's Potential Path
After several weeks of absence and a detour to the Six Kings Slam in Saudi Arabia, Carlos Alcaraz is making his return at the Paris Masters 1000. Discover his potential path in the capital.
As with every tournament, Carlos Alcaraz does not hide his ambition: to go as far as possible. While he benefits from a bye in the first round, his first opponent will be the winner of the duel between Cameron Norrie and Sebastian Baez.
In his section of the draw, spectators could once again see a family clash between Rinderknech and Vacherot as early as the second round. A "cousin" battle where the winner could be the Spaniard's opponent in the third round.
In the quarter-finals, Alcaraz could cross paths with Félix Auger-Aliassime or Casper Ruud. However, both were forced to retire during the quarter-finals of the ATP 500 in Basel.
If this scenario were to happen, Taylor Fritz or Alex de Minaur would await Alcaraz in the semi-final. And behind them, the dangerous Karen Khachanov and Alexander Bublik will also be looking to pull off a major upset.
In the opposite half, Jannik Sinner stands as the heavy favorite to reach the final. A rematch between Alcaraz and Sinner in Paris? The crowd is waiting for nothing less. Otherwise, Zverev, Shelton, or even Musetti are likely opponents.
