Alcaraz spoils Chinese party in Shanghai

  • Posted: Oct 06, 2024

Carlos Alcaraz was forced to battle hard on Sunday as he earned an eleventh consecutive win to advance to the Rolex Shanghai Masters fourth round.

The World No. 2 showed glimpses of his most scintillating tennis as he soared to a 7-6(5), 6-3 win over wild card Wu Yibing. Having clinched his fourth title of the season at the China Open earlier this week, Alcaraz remains unbeaten since his shock second-round exit at the US Open.

Chinese men’s tennis has undergone an eye-catching rise during the Asian swing, but Alcaraz is proving to spoil the party after he defeated Shang Juncheng in his Shanghai opener.

Alcaraz is set to face either Gael Monfils or Ugo Humbert for a spot in the quarter-finals.
