I Was More Focused On Draper's Game Than Myself: Alcaraz On Indian Wells SF Loss
Indian Wells SF: Carlos Alcaraz has said that his nerves and being too focused on Jack Draper's strong game led to his defeat in the three-set semi-final to the British lefty at the Indian Wells Open.
Seeking a third consecutive title at the year’s first ATP Masters 1000 event in Indian Wells, the second-seeded Spaniard saw his 16-match winning streak in the desert come to an end after losing to Draper 6-1, 0-6, 6-4 in the semifinal.
“I always say that I have to be focused on myself, on my own game. I think today I was more worried about his level, his game, than myself… So when you're thinking more about the opponent than yourself, then it is a big problem," the former World No. 1 and four-time Grand Slam champion was quoted by ATP Tour.
