Alcaraz Seeks Barcelona Title Return
Carlos Alcaraz reached the final in Monte Carlo last week, defeating Tomas Martin Etcheverry, Alexander Bublik, and Valentin Vacherot before losing to Jannik Sinner in straight sets. He led by a break in both sets but couldn’t convert his chances.
With that loss, he failed to defend his Monte Carlo title and also surrendered the world No. 1 ranking to Sinner, who has now won four consecutive Masters titles.
Alcaraz had started the season strongly, winning 16 matches in a row, including titles at the Australian Open and Doha, along with a semifinal in Indian Wells.
This will be his sixth appearance in Barcelona. After losing in the opening round in his first two visits, he has reached at least the final in his last three appearances, including title wins in 2022 and 2023.
