At the 2021 Madrid Masters second round, Nadal defeated Carlos Alcaraz with ease in their first-ever match, dropping just three games overall. When they faced off again at Indian Wells less than a year later, Nadal prevailed in three sets over his opponent. Nonetheless, a few months later in Madrid, Alcaraz ultimately triumphed over the then-21-time Major winner.
Alcaraz, who had an incredible 2023 campaign in which he won five ATP Tour titles and his second Major victory at Wimbledon, will put Nadal to the test as he makes his comeback after a year-long layoff owing to a hip flexor injury.
The 37-year-old’s goal going into the ATP 250 event is to have a solid baseline for the Australian Open of the following year. He is currently number 668 in the ATP rankings after being out of action for a while.
