Carlos Alcaraz: “I already want to return to Mexico”
The Spanish tennis player was pleasantly surprised by the dedication of the Mexican fans at the Tennis Fest.
The evening couldn’t have ended better for Carlos Alcaraz. The Spanish tennis player defeated Tommy Paul in two sets and hinted at a new adventure in Mexico.
“I’m looking forward to coming back; I’m very surprised by how well they welcomed me. I went to the Basilica, and I can’t wait to come back once again to do a bit more sightseeing,” the star said after the exhibition game.
“Little by little, we improved and showed a better game. In the end, I think that’s what tennis is about - having fun, enjoying oneself, and making spectacular points.
“Thank you very much for the invitation and to the people who came to support us from start to finish.”

In a gesture that is gradually becoming a tradition, the Greek player wore a shirt from the Mexican National football team before and after her match.
“I have more from Mexico than from Greece now; this makes it six. I love you, and see you next year,” said the Greek player.
It was certainly some atmosphere for the exhibition matches.
