Tomorrow at one o'clock in the morning, the final men's singles final of the Miami Masters will be staged. The two sides are Norway's Rudd, who is ranked seventh in the world, and Alcalas, the Spanish supernova who is 11th in the world. Bean powder believes that the fan brother Nadal Alcaraz will complete the unfinished business of idol Nadal Miami Masters?
Born in 1998, Rudder inherited the mantle of his father, the number one men's singles in Norwegian history and the highest ranking in the world, and once reached 39th place, and repeatedly refreshed the history of Norwegian tennis. After winning the first career title at the ATP250 Innos Aires in February 2020, Ruder became Norway's first tennis champion since the 1968 Open era, reaching 34th in the world ranking, surpassing his father to create a new high in Norwegian tennis history. On 13 September 2021, Ruud reached the top 10 for the first time in the world rankings, setting norwegian tennis history. In the 2021 season, Ruud won five ATP250 championships, ranking eighth in the world at the end of the year, and was nominated for the ATP Player of the Year Award for Most Improved Player of the Year (losing to a British brother Nori).
Ruud is an authentic clay player whose forehand strikes even exceed that of Nadal, the king of clay, and his backhand strikes rev. Federer said Ruud had plenty of time to hit the ball with his forehand behind the serve on clay to bring his spins, changes and slides to full play. Xiao De also said that the clay field is definitely Rude's favorite venue, and his performance in the clay field is very comfortable. Ruud has won seven ATP250 races so far in his career, six of which are from clay courts. Ruud's previous three previous semi-finals at the Masters have also taken place on clay courts (Roma 2020, Monte Carlo 2021 and Madrid).
It is such a hard-court record (only won the 2021 ATP250 San Diego Hardcup Championship once), rudder, who previously had a pitiful first round of the Miami Masters (2017, 2019), but this year's Miami Masters shined and soared, winning last year's Indian Wells Masters champion, Britain's one Brother Nori, five Masters champions, two year-end finals champions and last year's Olympic gold medalist Zverev Jr. And Argentina's big black Horse Celentolo, who reached the final in one fell swoop, and actually created the best record of his current career in the hard court. Even Rudd himself was a little incredulous: it might be a little different from the venue I imagined to be in the final!
Looking ahead to the final of the Miami Masters, Rudd said: "Alcaraz is a very talented player, with a high ball quotient, a strong ability to read the game, and a very good understanding of when to play what kind of ball to play. He is extremely aggressive, adventurous and often faces the ball. When he played against him in the ATP250 Marbella Clay Race last year, he played very well and basically didn't have any chances himself. He's already a really good player and will definitely see him in the coming years. Therefore, in the game with him, we must go all out, hoping that this game he will have a few more mistakes before he can complete his revenge.
Spanish supernova Alcaraz, indeed remarkable, lived up to the name of "Little Nadal". Born in 2003, Alcaraz won the ATP Newcomer of the Year award for the 2020 season. After defeating British brother Nori in the first round of the 2021 US Open, he surpassed the big three of federer, Nadal and Xiaode at the age of 18 years and 3 months to become the youngest active player to win the first victory in all four Grand Slams. Alcalas won four consecutive games to reach the quarterfinals of the US Open, becoming the youngest US Open quarter-finalist since the 1968 Open era. In the 2021 Forces Nouvelles Finals, Alcaraz lost only one set in five games, won the championship, and the world ranking soared from 141 at the beginning of the year to 32nd at the end of the year, becoming the youngest player in the top 100 in the world rankings, and was nominated for the 2021 ATP Player of the Year Award for Most Improved (losing to a British brother Nori).
Coming to the 2022 season, Alcaraz became the 31st seed of the 2022 Australian Open at the age of 18 years and 8 months, surpassing the big three of the same age and becoming the youngest Grand Slam seeded player since Zhang Depei of the 1990 US Open. In February 2022, at the ATP500 Rio Clay Tournament, Alcaraz won the championship with a victory over Italian young coach Berrettini and veteran Fognini, Argentine short-legged tiger Schwartzmann, becoming the youngest champion of the ATP500 tournament since its establishment in 2009 at the age of 18 years and 9 months, breaking into the top 20 in the world ranking, surpassing nadal of the same age to become the youngest active player to achieve this achievement.
North America "Sunshine Doubles" has begun, Alcaraz has become the most stable and excellent player in the two Masters tournaments in Indian Wells and Miami, the previous semi-final three sets lost to idol Nadal, the station went to the next level, five consecutive wins to reach the final final, his defeats will be described as a fierce general: Hungary a brother Fosovic, 2014 US Open champion, Croatian cannon Cilic, the world's fifth, Greece's beauty beauty Tsitsipas, Serbian Djokovic Jr., the big black horse Kečimanovic, Defending champion and Polish upstart Hulkács. This little Nadal who likes to attack and play a lot of winning points, although the idol on the growth path is his compatriot Nadal, in fact, the style of play is more like Federer (Alcaraz himself and the 2003 French Open champion, former world number one, coach Ferrero think so), the strong attack is extremely aggressive, like to come to the net to put pressure on the opponent, while combining small ball tactics. Yesterday's semi-final match against the defending champion and Polish upstart Hulkach, who ended Medvedev's dream of regaining the world's first dream in the previous two sets, Arkalas' aggressive forehand attack, the pressure on the internet and the sudden release of small balls were vividly performed, ending the opponent's dream of defending the title with a two-set seven-set victory. After the game, Alcaraz said excitedly, I was very emotional because it was something I had dreamed of since I was a child. In the Indian Wells Masters semi-finals, Nadal and I played a very exciting game for more than 3 hours, which gave me the experience of playing in the semi-finals of the Masters. In this semi-final with defending champion Hulkac, I did a better job of dealing with adversity and managing tension. Hulkac was also convinced, saying: "At the age of 18, Alcaraz, it is really crazy to be able to play such a high level of tennis! His style of play and level of competition are simply incredible, and he will surely have an incredible career in the future.
Tomorrow at one o'clock in the morning, the Miami Masters final, the fan brother Nadal Alcaraz, will most likely complete the unfinished business of idol Nadal Miami Masters.
Nadal, a 21-time Grand Slam champion, 36 Masters champions and 2008 Beijing Olympic gold medalist, has not won the Miami Masters championship so far in his career, and has only finished runners-up five times in 2005, 2008, 2011, 2014 and 2017. At the ATP Nine Masters, Nadal still lacks three championships in Miami, Shanghai and Paris, which is in stark contrast to the world's first, 20 Grand Slam champions and 37 Masters champions. Today, the unfinished business of idol Nadal Miami Masters has historically fallen on the shoulders of his fan brother Nadal Alcaraz.
Thinking back to the final of the 2005 Miami Masters, 18-month-old and 10-month-old Spanish wind chaser Nadal challenged Federer, the world's number one at the time, but unfortunately won two sets and then lost three sets in a row (at that time, the Masters final was still implementing a five-set three-win system), resulting in his first Masters final. Now it is the turn of 18-year-old and 11-month-old Spanish supernova Alcalas, who is ranked 11th in the world in real time, and in his first Masters final, he challenges Rudd, who also reached the masters final for the first time and ranked seventh in the real world, and the degree of difficulty is not the same as that year. Fan little Nadal Alcaraz, idol Nadal Miami Masters unfinished business, please come and complete it! (Source: Tennis House Author: Colorful Bean Powder)
