Still sporting his accidental buzz cut, Carlos Alcaraz wins easily at the US Open
The accidental Buzz Cup by Carlos Alcaraz goes to the US Open thanks to an easy victory to do on the second round Wednesday evening, a year after losing at this stage of the Grand Slam tournament.
Alcaraz n ° 2-which shaved his head after his brother spoiled his hair-needed just over 1 1/2 hour to beat Mattia Bellucci, 65th, from Italy 6-1, 6-0, 6-3 under the lights of the Arthur Ashe stadium.
Alcaraz has never faced a break point and accumulated an advantage of 32-11 among the winners. Overall, far from what happened in the second round at Flushing Meadows in 2024.
Alcaraz entered it on an undefeated race of 15 games during major tournaments – thanks in large part to the titles of the Open of France and Wimbledon – but came out on the wrong side of a straight defeat against Botic Van de Zandschulp.
There has never been any stunning kind of kind against Bellucci.
“Yeah, I played well, to be honest,” said Alcaraz, who won the first of his five Grand Slam titles at the US Open in 2022. “Today was not his day. I tried to get the most out of his mistakes.”
He and the n ° 1 Jannik Sinner combined to win the last seven major trophies.
