What Alcaraz said after winning the silver medal in Paris 2024

“Maybe I felt, not more pressure, but different because I was playing for Spain for gold. I still put a bit of pressure on myself to play for Spain and I was facing a player who still wanted that medal. The opposite is a player who does better in important moments. I didn’t give my best in the difficult moments, I didn’t raise the level in those moments and he. It’s a different pressure and the difference can be quite there.”, said the Murcian tennis player with a medal hanging around his neck.

“It was a difficult moment because I wanted more, I wanted the gold and losing was not pleasant. I left with my head held high; I left everything I had inside; When you lose like that you leave the court proud of what you did; You have Djokovic in front of you who has the same desire and played at a high level, sometimes better. The tears at the end were because I didn’t achieve the goal or desire of the Spaniards and I wasn’t able to make the Spaniards proud with a gold medal. “I will leave with another medal, which is not easy, and I am proud to achieve it.”, he said later. “In the end Djokovic enjoyed the moment with his people and I didn’t exchange many words, He told me I would win gold one day. “His tears meant he was really looking forward to that moment.”complete.
