Carlos Caraz is the open Roma hero. In a fixed and ripe exhibition in front of the world ranking leader, Spaniard Jeanc Cyrine exceeded two groups in 0, with 7/6 (7-5) and 6/1, 1H45 minutes on Sunday (18), and raised the cup for the first time on the clay of the Financial Forum.
This was the fourth consecutive victory over the Italian and twenty -fifth Italian career title at the age of 22. The result is strengthening its rise in the season and putting it among the best candidates for the Roland Garros title, which begins within a week.
The final is his first confrontation at the Master 1000 between players who have many Grand Slam titles out of Big Three since 2004, when he faced Hewitt Agassi.
Sinner arrived in an impressive sequence of 26 consecutive wins in the circle, but material erosion was clear after a balanced group, decided to draw.
Alcaraz, in turn, was effective and fixed: 17 winners and 32 non -coercive mistakes in the match added, but he dominated the decisive points and imposed two sets of opposite facts. The Italian had only seven winning balls and remained without winning a title at home – Rome followed as a numbers championship in the world.
When the cup is held, Alcaraz celebrated the unprecedented title and made the praise point for its competitor:
“I am very happy. It is my first title here and I hope that this is the last. First of all, I would like to say that I am very happy to see Janek returns to this amazing level. I know it was not easy, it was three months without playing, and it already reached the end of the Master 1000, and this is the crazy.
Thinking about Roland Garros, the end of the Spanish:
“The final is not about playing, but rather a victory. Now I will rest for a few days, and enjoy my team and prepare for Paris. Winning in Rome and Janic’s vision is going well give me more confidence in what will happen.”
How was the game
The first group was up to the expectations that included two unified names at the top of the world. Alcaraz and Sinner delivered a balanced duct, full of changes, extensive exchanges and plastic plays, as if they were responding, pointing to the point, to the electric climate in the oblique forum.
With the absence of periods of service, the group became tense to link the tie, amid moments of pure emotion such as the screaming of Italian fans in complete harmony: “Olê, olê, olê, hello … the wrong, wrong!”
But it was the caramel that showed the cold in the details. The Spaniard saved two points from a group before the draw, the tie began with a small break and a modification of two ACES to control.
Even with irregular performance, the group ended with 9 winners and 22 unprecedented mistakes, benefited from the decisive points and closed partial. The sinner, despite the support of the stands and an additional mistake than the opponent (23), witnessed the first escaping group.
Indeed, the second group has a completely different text. The sinner, who was supporting the extreme pace of fencing so far, showed clear signs of physical corrosion, and perhaps linked to some physical discomfort.
Without a travel explosion and with precision, the Italian Alcaraz saw the procedures from the beginning. With two consecutive periods, the Spaniard opened 4-0 within a few minutes, imposing a suffocating pace that contradicts the delivery of the opponent.
The partial seemed to walk into a “frame”, but the sinner managed to confirm a looting game, although under the impression that the caraz, with a comfortable feature, took a little foot.
When putting power, the Spaniard closed the group at 6/1, with a strong performance: there were 8 winners and 10 unprecedented mistakes, much higher than Italian, which produced only two winners and made eight errors.
