Carlos Alcaraz is already in ATP 500 Beijing to start his Asian tour. The player from Murcia arrives in China after a tough loss in the second round of the US Open and the subsequent Laver Cup, where he regained confidence in his game and we saw the usual Alcaraz, smiling on the court and motivated to perform at a high level of tennis.

The Asian tour begins for Carlos Alcaraz amidst the controversy surrounding the ATP calendar, as some players like him have openly voiced complaints, aiming to lighten the tournament schedule in the upcoming years. The Spanish player attended the tournament’s press conference and addressed this issue again, along with other topics such as the return of Rafa Nadal to the Spanish team for the Davis Cup finals in Malaga.

– About the calendar

“My energy right now is good, I’m motivated to come to China to play good tennis. I will try to win the tournament, as I do in all the ones I attend,” Carlos began. “I know many players won’t be on my side regarding calendar complaints, but many others will, it depends on each one. For example, Jannik Sinner also attended the press conference here and hardly complained. I speak for myself, that the calendar is very tight from the first week of January to the last week of November… something needs to be done about it. I have seen many people talking about my calendar because I have done many exhibitions, but we need to separate the calendar and the exhibitions, they are different things.”

– Carlos played the hero in the Laver Cup

Alcaraz was the main weapon that helped Team Europe win their fifth Laver Cup: “It was a good feeling. We all go to the Laver Cup to win it, and we wanted to win the cup again after the last two years of Team World domination. It was a good achievement for me. Good tournament, good experience to be with players who are usually rivals, feeling their energy while playing is an incredible experience for me. I played well, which has helped me gain more confidence to come here. I’m ready to achieve a good result, even though I have a tough draw.”

– Possible end of Nadal’s career in the Davis Cup

“It’s always good to have him on the team; I miss him. I won’t lie, I missed Rafa in the Laver Cup. For me, it’s a privilege to spend time with him. I don’t want to say it’s his potential ‘last dance’ in Malaga, I just want to think that I will try to enjoy watching him on the court as much as I can. Nadal can bring us a lot of experience, and these are my first finals. It will be good for the team and the country, plus we are playing in Spain. I will enjoy the Davis, I hope it’s not the last time for Rafa.

Carlos Alcaraz will make his debut at ATP Beijing 2024 against the young Frenchman Giovanni Mpetschi Perricard, during the September 26th Thursday session.
