Carlos Alcaraz has once again left fans floored with a feat of athleticism during the Queen’s Club final.
The 22-year-old has adapted to the grass court in supreme fashion, sweeping aside Adam Walton, Jaume Munar, Arthur Rinderknech, and Roberto Bautista Agut to reach the final in London.
Alcaraz’s shot selection at Queen’s has floored fans and the Roland Garros champion has continued to impress in the final.
Following on from Alcaraz’s 250th ATP Tour win, the Spaniard has left the entire Andy Murray Arena in a state of shock.
Fans rose to their feet in the arena and the applause continued into social media as Alcaraz pulled off a stunning defensive point against Lehecka.
Fans stunned by Carlos Alcaraz’s defensive play at Queen’s Club
Alcaraz won a point against all odds as he reached a seemingly unwinnable drop shot to keep himself in the point.
The Spaniard followed it up with a lob, which eventually won him the point over his Czech counterpart in the Queen’s final.
“How in the world has Carlos Alcaraz managed to get that ball back?” one fan asked on X, while another said: “The young king is at it again!”
“Look at this entertainer,” another fan wrote as they watched on in awe. They weren’t alone, as one wrote: “Carlos Alcaraz is the king of lob! Incredible.”
Despite the jubilation of winning the point, Alcaraz lost the tie break as Lehacka forced a final set decider with the two-time Wimbledon champion.
However, Alcaraz picked up the win in straightforward fashion in the next set, racing to a 6-2 victory in the decider.
World No. 1 calls Carlos Alcaraz a ‘student of the game’
BBC 5 Live commentator Pat Cash was just as floored as fans by Alcaraz’s form in the Queen’s Club final.
“Alcaraz is a great student of the game,” said the former Wimbledon champion while on commentary duties.
The former World No. 1 continued: “He is just very, very clever and such an experienced grass-court player at such a young age.”
It’s easy to see why Cash is so impressed with the Spaniard on grass. Alcaraz has only lost once in the last three years on the surface.
