Get that he wants to pay back all the support he has received but boy was that an awful decision to play so soon - Tennis fans react to tired Carlos Alcaraz losing first match as World No 1 in Davis Cup

By Shyam Kamal Modified 20 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Carlos Alcaraz lost to Felix Auger-Aliassime in their encounter at the 2022 Davis Cup Carlos Alcaraz began his reign as the World No. 1 with a loss, falling to Felix Auger-Aliassime in the 2022 Davis Cup Finals. Less than a week after his exploits at the US Open, where he became the first teenager since Rafael Nadal in 2005 to win a Grand Slam title, the Spaniard flew to Valencia to represent Spain in the competition. Although the teenager did not play against Serbia, he was selected to compete against Canada, where he took on World No. 13 Auger-Aliassime in the second singles rubber. Despite taking the first set in a brilliant tiebreaker, the exhaustion of the last two weeks caught up with the Spaniard in the next two, as he bit the dust, losing 6-7(3), 6-4, 6-2 to the Canadian in front of his home fans. With Roberto Bautista Agut beating Vasek Pospisil in the first rubber, the contest was to be decided in the doubles encounter, which also went in favor of Canada to give the North American team the tie 2-1. Tennis fans on social media were not too concerned with Carlos Alcaraz's loss, remarking that it was quite understandable that he was tired after such a demanding stint in New York. At the same time, they blamed the Spanish Tennis Federation and Alcaraz himself in part for the "awful" decision to jump back into action so soon. "I get that he wants to pay back all the support he has received from the Spanish Federation and the Spanish fans but... boy was that an awful decision to play DC so soon after an exhausting US Open," a fan wrote. Dagny Taggart@aynrandrules@josemorgado I get that he wants to pay back all the support he has received from the Spanish Federation and the Spanish fans but... boy was that an awful decision to play DC so soon after an exhausting US Open...5@josemorgado I get that he wants to pay back all the support he has received from the Spanish Federation and the Spanish fans but... boy was that an awful decision to play DC so soon after an exhausting US Open... At the same time, one fan noted that it was mighty impressive how the Spaniard could even put up a fight against Auger-Aliassime considering how exhausted he must have been. "A very impressive fight, considering 11 days ago Carlos Alcaraz was in the 1/8 finals of the US Open and played a marathon 17 hours in 4 matches since then," a Twitter user wrote.

Meanwhile, users on Twitter were ecstatic with the Canadian's performance regardless of Alcaraz's physical state. Some remarked that he belongs among the best young players in the world at the moment and that he was capable of beating anyone on his day. "To beat the current US Open champ, World No. 1, in Spain, down a set, takes a lot of guts. One of the best wins in FAA’s career," a user tweeted. Lukas Weese@WeesesportsCAREER. WIN.

Vivek Jacob@vivekmjacobHuge win for FAA over Alcaraz. The US Open champ is definitely a bit overcooked after his winning run and media obligations that came with it, but an impressive showing from Felix to give Canada an advantage in this Davis Cup tie.8Huge win for FAA over Alcaraz.
