Infosys ATP Stats: The first meeting with a rising star can be tricky at times, as one doesn't know what to expect. However, World No.1 Carlos Alcaraz did not encounter much trouble in halting the progress of teenager Joao Fonseca with a straight-sets win at the Miami Open.
Alcaraz and Fonseca both produce a booming sound when they connect with the ball on their ferocious cuts. But that was no match for the noise on Friday night on the stadium court at the Miami Open.
In front of a boisterous crowd, Alcaraz held his nerve to notch a 6-4, 6-4 victory in the pair's first ATP head-to-head meeting. While the heavy Brazilian support roared on Fonseca as he went toe to toe with the No. 1 player in the ATP Rankings, Alcaraz's experience and maturity helped him navigate a spirited challenge from the 19-year-old.
