Nadal vs Alcaraz: “The Netflix Slam” Exhibition Match Set for March 3
Tennis enthusiasts are eagerly anticipating the upcoming exhibition match between legendary Rafael Nadal and rising star Carlos Alcaraz, dubbed “The Netflix Slam.” Scheduled for March 3 in Las Vegas, this highly anticipated clash promises to be an electrifying spectacle.
Nadal, a 22-time Grand Slam champion, returns to action after an injury setback at the Brisbane International in January. The Spaniard’s comeback in Brisbane marked his first appearance in almost a year. Despite plans to participate in the ATP 250 event in Doha, Nadal withdrew due to ongoing recovery.
Alcaraz, on the other hand, has been in impressive form, rising to the top of the ATP rankings. The 19-year-old has faced Nadal thrice on the ATP circuit, with Nadal emerging victorious in the first two encounters. However, Alcaraz triumphed in their most recent meeting at the Madrid Masters in 2022.
The “Netflix Slam” exhibition match will provide a unique opportunity for fans to witness the clash of generations. Nadal’s experience and unwavering determination will be tested against Alcaraz’s youthful exuberance and aggressive style of play.
The match will be broadcast live on Netflix in India, starting at 2:00 AM IST on Monday, March 4. Tennis enthusiasts can expect an entertaining and thrilling encounter as two of the sport’s most formidable players go head-to-head.
