Defending champion defeats Matteo Arnaldi 6-3, 6-3, 6-4Alcaraz: ‘I put out all the pressure that people put on you’
Carlos Alcaraz says that he does not feel any additional pressure as he continued his attempts to defend a grand slam title for the first time by calmly moving into the quarter-finals of the US Open with a 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 win over Matteo Arnaldi.
“I didn’t feel anything different,” said the world No 1. “I try not to think about the defending champion. I just try to be focused on my game, on my own game, on what I have to do to put my best level on court. For me, nothing else matters than playing to my level and be happy with the level that I’m playing on court.
