On Monday Match Analysis, Gill Gross breaks down Carlos Alcaraz's 6-4 6-4 win over Taylor Fritz in the final of the Tokyo 500, which reversed the Laver Cup result from just over a week ago. We'll discuss how this recent run of form has turned Alcaraz's season into an all-timer, his use of the dropshot and backhand tactics. We'll also look at Fritz's attempt to replicate the Laver Cup match- where did this match deviate? Then, we'll get into the Shanghai Masters 1000 Preview. Alcaraz has pulled out but reigning champion Jannik Sinner and last year's finalist Novak Djokovic are both present. We'll go quarter-by-quarter in the draw and name dark horses, upset alerts, early popcorn matches and predictions.0:00 Intro1:00 Alcaraz 90 Percent2:20 Laver Cup Revenge4:20 Alcaraz Tactics9:10 Fritz’s Attempt To Replicate19:10 Shanghai Intro22:35 De Minaur’s Q30:47 Zverev’s Q36:15 Djokovic’s Q43:45 Sinner’s Q48:22 Final WeekendIG: https://www.instagram.com/gillgross_/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@gill.gross24/7 Tennis Community on Tribe: https://tribechat.com/gillTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/Gill_GrossThe Draw newsletter, your one-stop-shop for the best tennis content on the internet every week: https://www.thedraw.tennis/subscribeBecome a member to support the channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvERpLl9dXH09fuNdbyiLQQ/joinEvans Brothers Coffee Roasters, the Official Coffee Of Monday Match Analysis... use code GILLGROSS25 for 25% off your first order: https://evansbrotherscoffee.com/collections/coffeeAUDIO PODCAST FEEDSSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5c3VXnLDVVgLfZuGk3yxIF?si=AQy9oRlZTACoGr5XS3s_ygItunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/monday-match-analysis/id1432259450?mt=2 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
