The defending Wimbledon champion lost to Gael Monfils 4-6 7-6 (5) 6-4 in the second round clash.<p>Shortly after Monfils consolidated a break in the third set on Friday, Alcaraz was so frustrated that he smashed his racket against the court several times, bending the frame out of shape.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\"I apologize because my attitude yesterday was not correct and it is something that should not be done on the track. I am human, I have a lot of nerves inside and sometimes it is very difficult to control yourself when your heart rate is so high. I will work so that it does not happen again. Time to think about NYC!,\" Alcaraz wrote on X on Saturday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>After losing the match, the Spaniard described it as the \u201cworst match\" of his career.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cI felt sometimes that I wanted to break the racket,\u201d he told reporters. \u201cIt never happened before, because I could control myself in those situations, in those feelings. Most of the time I could control myself and it could go better in the matches or in the situation that I\u2019ve been feeling before.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cToday, I couldn\u2019t control myself, because, as I said, I was feeling that I was not playing any kind of tennis\u2026I think some players, a lot of players, during their careers and during some certain moments, they can\u2019t control themselves. And it was one of the moments for me,\" he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cI felt sometimes that I wanted to break the racket,\u201d he told reporters. \u201cIt never happened before, because I could control myself in those situations, in those feelings. Most of the time I could control myself and it could go better in the matches or in the situation that I\u2019ve been feeling before.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>Also Read: <\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/sports-topics\/paris-olympics\">Paris Olympics News<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Article Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/ians.in\/english-wire\/sports\/1\" rel=\"nofollow\">IANS<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n",
