"I like watching clips of Federer and Murray. They are the best players on grass. I don't copy Djokovic, he slides like he's playing on clay. That's not my style. Everyone has their own style, I don't copy their style of play, I watch how they move and try to learn from them."
At Queen's Club, Alcaraz had a difficult opening match against Arthur Rinderknech with a score of 2-1 (4-6, 7-5, 7-6). This was the Spaniard's 5th victory after 7 matches on grass after the previous 2 Wimbledon tournaments.

Talking about playing on grass, the 20-year-old tennis player expressed: "Grass is never easy. I have played two tournaments on grass in my career with seven matches. I have not played much here. I have to play more, spend more time on the court, gain more experience. My chances of winning in this tournament are not very high."
In the second round of Queen's Club, Alcaraz will face Jiri Lehecka at 9pm today, June 22. If he wins this tournament, Alcaraz will return to the world No. 1 position because his senior Djokovic will not participate in this tournament to have more time to rest before Wimbledon in early July.
In addition, Alcaraz will also become the third Spanish player to win the Queen's Club, after Rafael Nadal and Feliciano López.
Winning this tournament, Alcaraz will return to the world number 1 position.
"I want to see my name on the list of winners of historical tournaments. This tournament is so iconic that I would love to see my name among the winners one day," Alcaraz expressed his wish.
In this tournament, Alcaraz is working with assistant coach Samuel Lopez, as coach Juan Carlos Ferrero is taking time off to rest with his family.
