Carlos Alcaraz is the best star of all time. And he was defeated by the 74th player in the tennis ranking. Surprisingly, the tennis world saw such an incident at the US Open. In the second round of the boys’ singles, Alcaraz lost 6–1, 7–5, 6–4 to Batik von de Jondschulup of the Netherlands.
Alcaraz also played the quarter finals in the last US Open. The third-ranked star in world tennis also won the US Open crown in 2022. This time he had to leave before the quarter.
Alcaraz commented after his departure, ‘The tennis schedule is packed. I have played many matches in Roland Garros, Wimbledon and Olympics. I took a break after the Olympics. But that was not enough. I didn’t get as much enthusiasm as I thought I would get in this tournament. But I don’t want to make any excuses.’
On the other hand, losing the best star of the time, De Jondschulup said, ‘The first time I went down to Arthur Ashe’s night session I had an incredible evening. I tried to stay calm. If they are not calm against these players, they take advantage.’
