Former world No. 1 Carlos Alcaras (Spain, No. 2) won the return match of the tour after 4 months.
At the ATP250 Argentina Open held in Buenos Aires, Argentina on the 15th (local time), Alcaras defeated Laszlo Zere (Serbia, No. 57) 6-2 4-6 6-2 to advance to the quarterfinals. Alkaras gave the first break of the match and gave up the second set, but recovered and won with two breaks in the third set.
Alkaras left the tour after the Paris Masters in November last year due to an abdominal injury and was scheduled to play at the Australian Open this year, but his return was delayed due to a hamstring injury. Alkaras, who crowned his first official match with a victory, said in a post-match interview, “It feels good to win again. I spent a long time just recovering without competition or competition. Finally, in 2023, I achieved my first victory.” 먹튀검증
Alcaras, who was enthusiastically cheered by the Argentine fans, said: “I am very happy. I did not expect such a large crowd and such a great atmosphere. So I am grateful to all the fans in Buenos Aires for the warm welcome I received at the first game. I will,” he said.
Alkaras will face Zere’s teammate Dusan Rayovic (90th) in the quarterfinals.
