Carlos Alcaraz has established himself as one of the most physically demanding players on the ATP Tour, especially in Grand Slam tournaments where matches are played in a best-of-five format. His relentless pace, aggressive shot-making, and ability to maintain high intensity throughout long matches make him a formidable opponent.

Alcaraz himself acknowledges the difficulty his rivals experience when facing him in extended battles. “I think I put some high speed on my shots during the whole match, that probably some players are not used to play at such high speed or intensity. So that gives me confidence,” he said, highlighting the advantage he gains from his playing style.

His ability to sustain energy and pressure over multiple sets often wears down opponents, forcing them into errors and physical exhaustion. Many players struggle to keep up with his pace, particularly in the later stages of matches when fatigue sets in.

As he continues to refine his game, Alcaraz remains aware of the edge he holds in endurance and intensity. His approach to Grand Slam matches ensures that he can push his opponents to their limits, making every point a battle and every set a test of resilience.
