Alcaraz takes confidence from Wimbledon: "I feel incredibly good on the pitch".
Carlos is having a complicated English tournament. After being seriously challenged by an excellent Frances Tiafoe in the third round (5-7, 6-2, 4-6, 7-6, 6-2), he had to work hard again in the Round of 16.
Faced with a very slack Ugo Humbert at the end of the match, the Spaniard was shaky, but finally came through in 4 sets (6-3, 6-4, 1-6, 7-5).
Overjoyed to have qualified for the quarter-finals, the defending champion made no secret of his delight: "It's always fantastic to qualify for the quarter-finals, and I feel incredible on the court.
I'm getting better with every match I play, I feel comfortable, I'm scoring good points, and I hope it continues like this.
I maintained a very high level of concentration throughout the match. The third set was difficult for me, but I was able to keep up."
