Video - Alcaraz's reaction after winning a 14-minute game

Carlos Alcaraz and Taylor Fritz, both winners of their first round-robin match, faced off on this Tuesday afternoon as part of the 2025 ATP Finals.

In the first singles match of this Tuesday at the Turin Masters, Carlos Alcaraz and Taylor Fritz are engaged in a fierce battle in the race for qualification. Midway through the second set, with the score tied at 2 games all, the Spaniard and the American struggled to break the deadlock while the world number one was serving.

Thus, after eight deuces and two break points saved, Alcaraz managed to hold his service game to maintain his lead on the scoreboard. But it took him 14 minutes to win his service game against a very disciplined Fritz on the return.

In fact, when he finally managed to hold his serve with an ace, the 22-year-old player celebrated, almost as if he had just won the entire match (see video below). After a second set as tight as the first, Alcaraz finally managed to level the match at one set all (6-7, 7-5 after 2 hours and 10 minutes of battle).
