On this week’s Monday Match Analysis, Gill Gross breaks down Carlos Alcaraz’s 3-set win over Jan-Lennard Struff which secured the Spaniards second straight Madrid Open title. We’ll talk about why Struff proves a tricky opponent for Alcaraz, how Alcaraz overcame the shortcomings of his serve, why his return strategy was ideal and we’ll praise his underrated lobs. After that, we’ll talk about how Madrid and Tournament Director Feliciano Lopez put on a clinic in what not to do to manage bad PR (public relations). We’ll start by going over how the extended 2-week Masters format is already having a profound impact. Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/monday-match-analysis/support
