Alcaraz: "Right now, the best player in the world is Sinner".
Carlos Alcaraz appeared before the press in Rotterdam, on the occasion of the ATP 500 tournament he is taking part in.
Beaten in the quarter-finals by Novak Djokovic at the Australian Open, he declared: "I don't think losing to Djokovic in the quarter-finals is a missed opportunity.
Considering that the season has just started, that there are a lot of challenges ahead and that if everything goes as I hope and wish, I'll be playing in this tournament for the next fifteen years.
I think I can take a lot of positives from losing to Novak, who played a great match, even if he had to forfeit the semi-final.
Facing him in the quarter-finals of a Grand Slam is one of the worst things that can happen, but now I'm only looking to the future."
He also spoke about Jannik Sinner: "I understand that people talk about who will end up winning the most or who will be the most dominant, but it's clear that right now, the best in the world is Jannik.
What he's doing is insane. In every tournament he plays in, he reaches the final stages, lost very few matches last year and never loses concentration."
Alcaraz will face Botic van de Zandschulp in the first round.
