This week on the ATP Tennis Podcast...
LUCIE AHL ON THE POTENTIAL OF ALCARAZ PLAYING DJOKOVIC IN THE SEMI-FINALS – “We’ve only had one match where they’ve played each other because of various reasons, so I think everyone is hoping that it happens. I’m looking forward to it. Alcaraz is playing unbelievably well… I think [Djokovic will] find his way through, and I don’t think that one will disappoint if they do make it through to the semis.”
CHRISTOPHER CLAREY ON GAEL MONFILS – “Like all of us I’ve followed Monfils throughout his career and he is a big-moment, big-setting character. Obviously, all the things he’s been through with his wife and Ukraine and having his first child, and Gael’s an empath, so I’m sure he’s felt all of that. So, all of the emotions when he came back from 0-4 down in the fifth the other night, that was extraordinary as he shook Baez’s hand and then he just lost it in a beautiful way.”
LUCIE AHL ON SOME LESSER-KNOWN NAMES PROGRESSING IN THE DRAW – “The depth in the men’s game has got a lot stronger and the Challenger level is tough. We’re starting to see players make the transition through. It’s easy sometimes to see players like Alcaraz and think that’s everyone’s path. Once the lower-ranked players start to come through and you see a few more shocks, they will start to get some belief as well.”
