Carlos Alcaras

Carlos Alcaras (2nd place, Spain) stopped the winning streak of Jannic Sinner (3rd place, Italy) and won the Men’s Professional Tennis (ATP) Tour BNP Paribas Open (total prize money of 9.49 million) ($5,555) advanced to the singles finals.

Alcaras defeated Sinner 2-1 (1-6 6-3 6-2) in the singles semifinals on the 14th day of the tournament held in Indian Wells, California, USA on the 17th (Korean time).

Alcaras, who defeated Sinner 2-0 (7-6 <7-4> 6-3) in the semifinals of this competition last year, won the final against Daniil Medvedev (4th, Russia) and Tommy Paul (17th, 17th). USA) will face the winner of the match.

Alcaras also had a balanced record against Sinner with 4 wins and 4 losses.

Jannik Sinner

Alcaras and Sinner are the leaders of the ATP Tour’s ‘next generation’.

Alcaras, born in 2003, won the 2022 US Open and last year’s Wimbledon, and Sinner, born in 2001, reached the top of this year’s Australian Open.

Alcaras defeated Novak Djokovic (No. 1, Serbia) 3-2 (1-6 7-6<8-6> 6-1 3-6 6-4) in last year’s Wimbledon final, and Sinner defeated Novak Djokovic (No. 1, Serbia) at this year’s Australian Open. In the semifinals, he defeated Djokovic 3-1 (6-1 6-2 6-7<6-8> 6-3).

Recently, the momentum has been better for Thinner.

Sinner was on a 16-game winning streak, including winning this year’s Australian Open, and Alcaras, who was eliminated in the quarterfinals of the Australian Open, has yet to win this year.

When Sinner won 6-1 in the first set, it seemed as if Sinner’s recent momentum was continuing, but after the second set, Alcaras counterattacked and turned the game around.

The final of the Women’s Professional Tennis (WTA) Tour BNP Paribas Open, which is also being held, will be held between Iga Cibiontech (1st place, Poland) and Maria Sakkari (9th place, Greece). 한국야동
