JAKARTA - Carlos Alcaraz was indeed able to get through the second round of men's singles at the 2024 Paris Olympics. He won against Dutch players, Tallon Griekspoor, with a score of 6-1 and 7-6 at Roland Garros, Monday, July 29, 2024.

Luckily he was still able to perform well in doubles with Rafael Nadal on Tuesday, July 30, 2024, local time.

Alcaraz and Nadal beat the Dutch doubles, Tallon Griekspoor/Wesley Koolhof, despite having to fight hard in the second half with a score of 6-4, 6-7, (10-2).

"I know how I have to deal with this pain. It's normal for a tennis player. The schedule is very tight, very demanding," said a 21-year-old tennis player.

"The otot is in the muscles of the conductor. So, the muscles are very much needed, I will see the progress," he said.

Despite experiencing a bit of discomfort, the way he won proved that Alcaraz would be difficult to beat at Roland Garros.

Griekspoor has been a victim of world number three twice in singles and doubles.

Alcaraz, who won the French Open and Wimbeldon 2024 titles, wants to talk a lot at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

That big ambition defeats his pain. He is determined to take over the Olympic gold medal baton for the first time in his career.

Alcaraz's slick appearance was also recognized by Griekspoor, who had met twice. The Spaniard played calmly to turn the pressure into a win.

"It made me very difficult in the first set. I think I played pretty well in the second set, fought well, fought hard, and got a small chance at the end of the second set."

"However, he played well. So, all praise must be given to him for playing a great match," said Griekspoor.

In the third round, Alcaraz will face Russian tennis player Roman Safiullin, who is ranked 66th in the world. While in doubles, Alcaraz and Nadal will meet representatives of the United States, Austin Krajicek/Rajeev Ram.
