“But I think the key of the match was to keep calm and [have] all the patience [with] myself because it was really not easy.
“Carlos was putting so much effort in the match points when he was down, so it was not easy to find the energy to come back.”
Nineteen-year-old Alcaraz made history on Monday when he climbed to No. 5 in the ATP Rankings, becoming the second-youngest player in the 21st century to crack the top five.
