Carlos Alcaraz Meets Steph Curry After Miami Open Victory
Miami Open’s top seed, Carlos Alcaraz, had a memorable Tuesday that included a tennis victory and a meeting with NBA superstar Steph Curry.
After defeating Lorenzo Musetti 6-3, 6-3, Alcaraz rushed to the Kaseya Center to catch the Miami Heat take on the Golden State Warriors. Despite the Warriors’ 113-92 victory, Alcaraz was thrilled to meet Curry after the game.
Alcaraz is not the first tennis star to cross paths with Curry. In recent weeks, Curry has posed for selfies with both Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic.
Alcaraz’s focus now shifts back to the Miami Open, where he aims to defend his title. The Spaniard is just three wins away from the semifinals, with a quarterfinal match against Grigor Dimitrov standing in his way.
Alcaraz’s victory over Musetti was a dominant performance. The 19-year-old Spaniard broke Musetti’s serve twice in each set and never faced a break point himself.
Alcaraz’s win streak in Miami now stands at 10 matches. He is the youngest player to reach the quarterfinals of the Miami Open since Rafael Nadal in 2005.
