Djokovic, Zverev, Rune: Alcaraz Could Have His Work Cut Out to Win the Trophy in Madrid

Although he has a first-round bye, Alcaraz will start in the second round against the winner of the match between Nishioka and Bergs.
In the following round, the El Palmar native could face Lehecka or Norrie, and in the round of 16, Dimitrov or Machac.
The 21-year-old player may potentially have to take on De Minaur, Tsitsipas, or Musetti for a spot in the semifinals. He notably defeated the Italian to claim his first title in Monte-Carlo.
In the semifinals, the Spaniard could face two players who have already beaten him this year: first Djokovic at the Australian Open, then Draper at Indian Wells.
Finally, the former world number one could potentially reach the top of the podium by defeating one of the following three players: Zverev, Rublev, or Rune.
