Before, I couldn't handle my nerves as well as I do now": Alcaraz discusses his changed approach to matches

Crowned in Rome on Sunday and now a two-time Masters 1000 winner this year, Carlos Alcaraz appears fully ready for Roland-Garros, where he will arrive as the defending champion.

In a press conference, the Spaniard spoke about the shift in mindset that has allowed him to enjoy a strong clay-court season:

"The feeling I have now is completely different from what I felt before the Miami tournament, for example. I approach every match differently, and it’s something I’m very proud of. I’ve found the right path again.

During matches, at certain moments, I feel different. Before, I was very nervous and couldn’t manage my nerves as well as I can now. I used to focus on other things that seemed important to me: the need to win and to achieve good results.

Now, I concentrate on other things, like being happy and proud of the moments I’m experiencing.

After these three months, coming to Rome and reaching the final means a lot to me, Sinner said after his defeat against Alcaraz.

A special thank you to my brother who is in Imola for Formula 1 rather than here: Sinner's humorous touch during his speech in Rome

I propose the following changes to the rules:

1...a walķover will not be a loss. We have no control of player's health. If he or she is entered in a contest we expect them to play.

2...an incomplete match is not a loss. If a player forfeits we pick another match if there are more to choose.

3...this also applies if TT cancels a match. TT will not take hours to decide an outcome.

How about leavin...

It's a shame that so many matches are being canceled. TT ,you are destroying your game ,and thereby killing your app. I don't know how many matches others have had canceled , but I'm at 3 and it's only thursday.

As a long time player and lover of this game , I don't know how much of this I can tolerate. For example I waited hours last night for you to confirm my win and post my points. Every ot...

This week I have used all my formulas and best guesses to try to achieve the high score jimandlori958 set in our last competition. I am two games short because of cancelations and I need all wins to get there.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Grenier and Hsu at the Kobe tournament? The match was played to completion and on time.

Grenier def Ysu 6-2 , 6-2 at Kobe today and the TT canceled the match.

2nd for me this week.

An impressive win.. Congrats to our winner this week, jimandlori958 and with a score that could not be caught or matched. I don't remember a 56 in a while with our group. Nice to see everyone using the 2 point predictions. Can't win without 'em.

Son of a gun, pow. You going for the 3peat? Do it, but I'm chasing and so is Jimandlori. lol

POWWOW , Congratulations you did it again and by slim percentage points. Keep it going....
