Añade declarations from Alcaraz

Carlos Alcaraz, number three in the world, was in goal in Beijing's foursome with a single Victoria (double 6-4) ahead of Frenchman Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard.

With a round from the start, Alcaraz was on his way to the big French game, 21 years old and 51st ATP player, who expected three balls to win 5-5 in the final of the first set.

When the world number three won them at Roland Garros and Wimbledon a year ago, she repeated the game in the second manga, changing her first round to the first place of France and going ahead with the triunfo without any problems.

“The plan was on the slopes, all the bits that were left. Kind regards, no time span. It should have a speed of 230 or 240 (km/h) during any operation. In the second set it was 210 to 215. It was easy to play before,” Alcaraz said.

“It's a player who needs a lot of money. You have a big challenge and you have to concentrate well on the matter at hand. I have to concentrate a lot on this. I gave up the plan long ago. I don’t plan on making mistakes and playing aggressively from the baseline,” he added.

Alcaraz se enfrentará in the next round with the Neerlandés Tallon Griekspoor (39e).

Mpetshi Perricard, winner of her first ATP title in the second round of Lyon in April, competed in the second round in Chengdu and was her first three-man team over three tournaments at the US Open in Cincinnati and Montreal.
