Carlos Alcaraz's Impressive Performance
The Spanish ace Carlos Alcaraz, fresh off a victory at the ATP 500 tournament in Beijing, has successfully secured his entry into the Shanghai Masters 1000. He faced off against Chinese player Shang Juncheng, ranked 51st, and won with an easy score of 6-2, 6-2 in the second round.
Upcoming Challenges
Alcaraz, currently ranked number 3, will take on another local player, Yibing Wu, a former world number 54 who has slipped to the 560th rank after an almost wipeout season. 'I’m playing really good tennis lately, and I just aim to keep it going,' said Alcaraz, celebrating his 10th straight win in just 1 hour and 16 minutes. 'Having the time to train before this match and being able to start like this makes me proud,' he added.
