Carlos Alcaraz e Jannik Sinner superaram partidas difíceis nas oitavas de final do Masters 1000 de Montecarlo nesta quinta-feira. O espanhol venceu Tomás Martín Etcheverry por 6-1, 4-6, 6-3, enquanto o italiano derrotou Tomas Machac por 6-1, 6-7(3), 6-3. Eles enfrentarão Alexander Bublik e Felix Auger-Aliassime nas quartas de final.

O número um do mundo, Carlos Alcaraz, precisou de duas horas e 23 minutos para vencer o 30º colocado no ranking, Tomás Martín Etcheverry, por 6-1, 4-6, 6-3 em Montecarlo. O espanhol cometeu 23 erros não forçados e teve dificuldades com o backhand no segundo set, momento em que seu treinador Samuel López o incentivou: “Fallar vas a fallar, pero hay que seguir intentando cosas” e “Ponte cabezón”.

Alcaraz comentou à beira da quadra: “Había jugado bien el primer set, sintiendo la bola de diez. Estoy contento de haber podido sacarlo adelante porque se me había complicado”. Na sexta-feira, por volta das 15h, ele enfrenta o 11º do ranking, Alexander Bublik, que venceu Jiri Lehecka por 6-2, 7-5.

Jannik Sinner perdeu um set após 37 vitórias consecutivas em torneios Masters 1000 e derrotou Machac em duas horas e um minuto. “He sufrido, pero se trata de dar lo mejor de uno mismo y superarlo. Ha sido positivo”, disse o italiano, que jogará contra Felix Auger-Aliassime por volta das 13h, após o canadense avançar devido à desistência de Casper Ruud.

Outras partidas das quartas de final contam com Alexander Zverev contra o brasileiro de 19 anos João Fonseca (35º), que surpreendeu Matteo Berrettini.
