Congrats Monfils, great win
Giving Monfils no Credit at all is just wrong and weak
He was being honest about his performance. Don't twist his words. Giving credit to his opponent without being honest about his feelings about the match would be disingenuous.
At least Djokovic would give credit
@@KCNwokoye He did not twist his words because there were no words to twist, he noted an omission of any credit to Monfils let alone congratulations is poor sportsmanship and shows a lack of maturity by not being humble in anyway.
@@KCNwokoye He’s right about that. It was Montif who raised his game in the third. Carlos didn’t play a bad match. He just doesn’t want to accept the fact that he lost to someone who is almost retired.
Lol wtf? Monf just happened to be there. Better versions of Monf have lost matches. This was just terrible tennis from both. @@shapursasan9019
Alcaraz played without committing himself with arrogance, he thought he would have an easy life against Monflis, instead at 37 years old Monflis gave him a good lesson. This attitude from Alcaraz and his team must make them reflect for the future....
Give Monfis some acknowledgment - he played really well and that definitely wasn’t your worst level
monfils never beat djokovic so he's not that good. in a match like this, the outcome depends solely on carlos
from the "highlights" it looks like it's certainly the worst, I have ever seen him play.
@@victorenglishtube5636 Why the f would you bring Djokovic to this conversation? That is such an illogical and irrational take. There are literally many guys who never beat Nadal but beat Djokovic, or guys who beat Federer but never beat Nadal, etc. etc. etc. Tennis is not a linear binary contest. Gosh. Learn something
@@victorenglishtube5636il n'a pas bien jouer du tout !!! Et le français a reagit !! Et à gagner son macht mérite !!!✌ bravo gael 🎉🎉😊
did we watch the same match? how did monfils play really well, his game was riddled with UEs and dumb decisions that honestly prolonged a match he could’ve won faster. if you’ve watched any other of alcaraz’s matches, this is very close to his worst level. his forehand and backhand were sloppy often and he let his frustration overtake his game
The biggest disappointment for me is not that he lost or that he played badly, but that he did not congratulate his opponent or recognize his merits.
Mlad je i dobar momak,naučiće od Noleta❤!
this is just a snippet of the interview
Alcaraz did congratulate to Monfils at the net the moment he lost, just in case you missed it.
@@mireafelder8194 yawwwnnnnn everyone does
I agree completely. Maybe some parts of the interview were cut, but still he didn't need to go on and on about how this was the worst match he ever played, blah blah. Gael played a great match, the score was close, they had plenty of great rallies. We're starting to see some arrogance from Carlos, and it's why he broke his racket. "I can't believe I'm losing to this guy!!" Gael deserves more respect.
It’s not your worst match. Monfil played very well.
From his perspective, he did not play well at all and that is the fact
Good on him very loving person Monfil 🌟⭐️
Monfils has no grand slam on his entire carrer. CArlos has already 4 plus Olympic medal being only 21 years old. Take that, son of a *
@@xavallokiyoIn all of Monfil's career, he has behaved in a most cultured and respectful manner. He exemplifies sportsmanship. Does that not matter to you? I guess not.
@@byronhay1648 Even Monfils smashed some racquets in his career: ruclips.net/video/-W1IbzRlnQ8/видео.html But if a 21 year old Alcaraz does it for the first time ever, you lot go all ballistic on him.
It's an insult to Monfils to say he lost the match because he played poorly.
Monfils is a great player.
@@s7131 both played poorly. Only monfils served really well especially on break points. look at the final stats. the one big difference? 15 aces (monfils) vs 8 aces (Carlos). that's it. carlos won a few more points overall
@@z1az285 Tennis 101 to credit your opponent if you lose.
@@huzcer Novak didn't credit rafa for winning in RG 2022 QF. No one's perfect
@@z1az285 "well congratulations to Nadal, he was the better player in the important moments, he started very well" 😂 how Djokovic literally opened his 2022 Roland garros press conference after the match. 😂 Of course in 2021 RG Nadal was blaming the conditions as an excuse before he could praise Djokovic 😂 really does have an inability to finish a sentence about an opponent beating him without sticking in an excuse. he's famous for it
@@huzcer Yeah, sure. the handshake wasn't particularly warm. in fact it was Rafaesque, something i didn't expect from Novak at all. i am saying this as a rafa fan. i never liked this aspect of his and the only times i have seen him be complimentary is towards federer and Alcaraz. Novak once.
he's definitely disrespecting monfils by not giving him credit, but I think there's a slight language barrier where it's hard for him to blame the loss on himself and praise monfils for the win at the same time.
Cry baby
I am soprise more for your behaviour samtimes you have to expect that you lost the game. Hopefully it will never happen
again. Good luck 👍 the rest of the season. I still like you.❤🎉
HE IS ANSWERING THE PRESS QUESTIONS < YOU SHIT STIRRERS
Why would he acknowledge Monfils? Carlos played really below his level and it was his worst match ever in his professional career, it’s not like Gael played great
I think you could be right. I’m willing to give Carlos the benefit of the doubt because I’ve never really heard him like this before. He’s usually very gracious in defeat, so…🤷♂️
Cut him some slack. Yes Monfils played very well and he could have mentioned that, but that was not the primary reason he felt he lost. Carlos was very shaken after the Olympics, the loss to Novak shook him more than I have ever seen. He is still human, and very young, always under enormous pressure to be the best. He is going through a tough emotional period. Its probably best he lost, so he can have some time to process his emotions, and be ready for the US Open.
He shouldn't be shook, novak is the best to ever play the game, he actually lucky novak is injured and old.
A prime novak would dog walk Carlos.
@boogieboo8529 ????? Selfish how?
He will not win the US Open if Novak is playing. Carlos needs to put some water in his wine. I am glad that Mofils won.
@@Ena-yt8ye He won both the french open and Wimbledon when novak was playing
yes he´s been under so much pressure since he was 15 - smash a racket it´s ok
People are so quick to with their negative comments.
He was answering the questions that were asked of him. And often Carlos used words that are not always descriptive because of his language barrier.
He is one of the most respectful and caring player so please let's not rake him over the coal.
Gael is a wonderful and entertaining player and he played well today🤗
great athletes acknowledge their opponents. Monfils is not some unamed player who just showed up in the tour. He is talented and still powerful at his age. But to not mention him not even once, and say i don't know what happened???? come one now be real.
Novak didn’t give his opponents credit when he was 21. Carlos was a bit rattled after the surprise defeat and couldn’t collect his thoughts. Besides he was just answering the question directly.
also Nivak Djokivic is the one who respect others the most , but people still bash him for no reason, cause they hate his greatnes and that he is greatest ever 😃
@@lilyzeng1222Novak became GOAT later
He is getting high to much in his brain.Thats the problem
Even the greatest...have to lose sometimes. You are still one of my favorite tennis player❤
You only learn to choose narcissists as partners. It shows how disturbed your taste is here.
I understand Carlos' frustration over his game today. But he certainly could have shown some humility by giving Monfils credit for the excellent showing he made on the court.
He didn't make an excellent showing. It was a matter of who played worse. They both looked terrible. Quite confusing
After what he said it assumable, it is not necessary an explicit sentence.
This is not the full interview. He did give Monfils credit.
Should give Gaël props for actually bringing his experience and outplay Carlos in the conditions presented there, instead of just saying you played bad, nothing to take away from that..
Even me, a non tennis player can see so much from that match that Carlos should definitively learn from.
And last but not least. Accepting a loss, and giving some props to your opponent is just normal politeness at least.
monfils played just as badly, only he served clutch and really well/ big at key moments
@@z1az285 That is precisley what tennis is about, winning in the key moments.
@@iansmirna5183 Yes and No. in this case Alcaraz actually played slightly better than monfils but the score doesn't indicate that. monfils served much better. but it doesn't mean he played better.
@@z1az285 serving is part of playing
@@PandaBabu81 its not the only stroke dude.
I’m only going to say this once…. First of all, Carlos is probably the least disrespectful player and person we have on tour right now. Secondly, this WAS, THEE worst he’s played ever if not for a very very long time. Barely exceeding 30% of his level at any point. Anyone, and I mean anyone who watches ALL of his matches, every year, since he broke on the scene (like I have) knows this. So he’s not being disrespectful to Gael at all, he very much respects him, evidence of that being the same hand shake and brief hug that he gave when he beat him in Miami. Just because he’s here talking about his own very off performance and no mention of Gael does not mean there’s any disrespect.
Well said
@@SteveWillDo91Very well said, nailed it
Bravo.
30 percent at any point... cmon bro get real...he didnt play his best but that hapens when you play masters you cant play ewery tournament at 100 percent...but saying such things is just ridiculus...monflis came in good form,alcaraz not in best and thats it,thats sport
@@ivanbro47 Monfils played pretty badly himself but he served exceptionally well from Set 2. and especially on break points.
He should be ashamed of himself. Not of how he played, but how he conducted himself, including this interview. This is not how you improve, how you become better. I hope Sinner wins the US Open and teaches him a lesson on how to stay grounded. I am a Spaniard and have been rooting for Carlos for a long time, but he is on the verge of loosing my support (and that of many others) if he forgets how he should be behaving on and off the court. Thats what made people LOVE him.
I know he is under tremendous pressure by media and even his own team but he has to understand that kids all over the world are looking at him as the absolute role model (here in Spain specially). It's not Who you are underneath, It is what you do that defines you.
Guys listen…every single match I have ever seen win or loose Carlos has said that the opponent did phenomenal, I’m not saying it was wrong for him to not say anything but I’m saying he could have slipped up and forgot, it happens. No one is perfect.
He's just answering the questions truthfully and how he felt. Give him a break for showing his frustration. He's young and does not need all your judgements. Let him reflect. Don't dictate how one should reflect.
So “he’s young is an excuse”?! Pretty sure he’s a grown adult who has won multiple grand slams and an Olympic medal. He needs a sports psychologist who will provide tools for him not to project his insecurities but find constructive ways to accept failure and improve.
nope he's gonna get the same sht we give other players
you must be narcissist, now young is ok when needs a brake, but young is good when winning slam? why not give yourself a break when he wins?
@@ASkyy166he has always been mentally strong. Just played bad today.
Its easy to be gracious when things are going well. I always like to see how the players are, their true colour and face when things don't go on their way.
Everybody can smile and be warm in victories.
The failures allow us to check if a player is really classy or just pretending with a public relation mask.
*A man's character is best seen at defeat, not in victory.*
Too inflated his fame and talent by the media. He is just a talented player with ups and downs and normal intelligence.
Normal intelligence means a way of saying he is not smart at all... He seems much more intelligent when talking in spanish honestly.
he has 4 GS titles at 21; best player in 15 years according to the results; basically best player since Djokovic; the results should be the reference, not the media
@@m.a.g.3920 Definitely not the same guy who just a couple of weeks ago... said in Spanish to a Spanish question "I'm going to win Gold so tune in and watch the show that I'm going to put on for you" like 2 days before the Olympic final.... Oh wait - IT IS!
he does not come across as that mature, even at 21yo. hope he grows up.
@@huzcer so what? I think people is giving too much importance to that phrase, because in spanish that doesn't mean that he WAS DEFINITELY going to give us the Gold, but he was going to TRY todo It. So he did, and he lost, what's wrong about that?
There's more to this interview, right? It's pretty standard to discuss your own performance and the opponent. Carlos usually does, and im sure he said it to Monfils at the net. All the questions in this section are about his performance or the matvhes with Novak. Just feel the comments about Monfils have been edited out of this
The interview does not look edited. The same thing happened to Novak during interviews. He would be criticized later and by fan comments that he didn’t give enough credit to his opponent. But the questions that were asked had to do with why he himself lost the match and that is something that both he and Alcaraz are willing to talk about - and that was what was going on in their minds and what was happening to their own game that accounted for their loss.
@@rosaliewright4226 I mean , we aren't seeing it neither the start or the end here. So there may well be other questions.
@@chelliebellie4443therefore please can you copy paste the part where he gave some credit to the winner.
*What did he say about Gael Monfils?*
As you claim the Spaniard said something else. 🤔
As non English native I understand how hard is to express feelings especially in a difficult situatoin. He was just brutally honest and hard on himself. Lost because didn't do a good job. Nobody ask him to reflect on oponents game and how he feels about that . He will learn the English phrease which is expected from him saying after lost match "I lost because my opponent was better today" even he doesn't feel that way. It is not disrespectful it is just beeing honest.
good english that is perfect!
Completely agree 💯
Nobody can be at the best of their game all the time, not even Novak Djokovic. It’s part of life, you need to move on as soon as possible : that’s it. You can do it Carlos 💪💪
This was not Alcaraz's worst match ever. Monfils served quite well and Alcaraz made his share of unforced errors. Alcaraz has lost his last 3 tiebreakers including the olympics.
Y'all this is just a snippet of his post match interview. sure if we saw the entire interview he gave Monfils credit.
but Its the whole interview no?
no this IS the whole interview.. in English part
@@rusty935 so where is other part
Good point
@@pradagirl6619 exactly
Tennis is a two players sport. You do what the opponent allows you to do. Considering Alcaraz said days ago "I want to be #1 in the live race asap", well he deserved this lesson from a great Monfils.
Worst court i have even seen. Servebot court.
Finally someone said it! If you play your worst, it’s because the opponent doesn’t allow you to play better. On this level, for sure.
He actually won first set easily 4-6, the court wasn’t giving him any problems yet …
@@xXDavidKillerxXthat’s a big excuse. Remember: excuses define losers
@@Jannikthebest_Nole2.0 looser: 2GS this year and SM in OG. 🤡🤡🤡
Don’t lose your joy in playing and your signature smile. Too much pressure or expectations are impacting your game Carlito.
he's only smiling when he's winning. that is such cringe from commentators to be honest.
very bad today the kid.not good
Signature smile? Wait until he loses!
@@lilise3965 You Alcaraz haters enjoy your 5 minutes of gloating, it's not gonna last for long. The kid won 4 Grand Slams, 5 Masters titles at only 21 years old. Enough said.
Some of these journalists' heads are in the sky.
English isn't his first language, so if you give these unfocused, meandering questions, you're going to make it MUCH more difficult for non-native speakers to understand you, clearly.
Read the room, ffs.
Alcaraz usually saves the really stupid stuff for Spanish doesn't he? - the same guy who just a couple of weeks ago... said (In Spanish) "I'm going to win Gold so tune in and watch the show that I'm going to put on for you" like 2 days before the Olympic final....
Congrats to Gael, he played great tennis.
It's painful to see Carlos struggling like this...but that's tennis. Matches aren't just physically devastating, they can also be mentally & emotionally devastating. I personally think he's exhausted, & hit a wall out there on the court.
Carlos is very young, works very hard, & still has a lot to learn. He's on an incredible trajectory, & I hope he's able to put this match in context & keep moving forward.
He's learnt sportsmanship from the best 😂 that is Nadal.
Whenever Nadal lost to Djokovic he would always frown and make excuses
He literally blames the court at least 3 times!!
He literally blamed the court 3 times!
How many times did Djokovic smash his racket again, and how many times did Nadal. One is the epitome of sportsmanship and the other used "injury" breaks to get his opponent off their momentum.
Monfils is no Djokovic. He's aged about 60!
@@rishikhandelwal1305 Nadal literally "needs" to smell his own waste off his fingers on every single point he plays - give me 2 broken rackets a year any day! Nadal is the famous "weak fish net handshake" merchant when he fails and the same guy just as "famous" for being unable to praise an opponent without putting in an excuse before the end of a sentence. Djokovic has an actual reputation for being gracious in defeat. Nadal NEVER had.
Alcaraz is a very arrogant person, just like Nadal was until he grew up a bit. He is overly confident and it doesn't do him any good. He was almost thrash talking before US Open 2023, by saying that anyone who wanted to beat him would have to go through pain. In the end Medvedev won in 4 sets. He said he is planning to give Spain gold, got punished and cried like a baby. He needs to grow up. Now he is disrespecting a veteran of the game. I cannot believe he gets so much support. But at the same time I am not surprised. People are people...
The media is doing PR like they did for Federer
Damn you can see he's really pissed about this match expect some fireworks in USO👀
Hope he streamrolls everyone at US open
Imagine the media backlash if Novak smashed his racket 4 times like Carlitos did in this match?

@@huzcerlmao. WTF is with that disgusting nadal ritual.
Alcaraz is just honest about his loss. Just another game. You'll be set for the US open. Vamos!
Just like the last year.
Lousy argument. He didn’t play well? Has he not won matches where he didn’t play well? How about the fact that his opponent has more than 350 pro tour wins than he does?
I have a dream : Corentin Moutet versus Carlos Alcaraz.
No winner. All tennis rackets were broken. Draw. 😂😂😂
A little humilty Carlos. Remember what Novak said about your performance against him at Wimbledon, eventhough it was obvious playing 6 weeks post op, he wasn't moving like his normal self, as in the Gold medal match. Not an excuse a player can give the press, so better to acknowledge your opponents play that pushed you feel your game was below par. Live and learn.
He was playing well enough to get to the final
@@jm_1214 Don't matter, you rarely see Novak lose like how he lost to carlos at wimbledon. He still gave credit to carlos for playing good, unlike what carlos is doing here.
@@Sam-fs8sx true but clearly he was still stunned by the upset. He's human. All around it wasn't his normal sportsmanlike behavior. Good that he apologized for losing it with his racket.
I understand why all of you are upset, but please remember that this guy is human. For sure it is unsportsmanlike to not give direct credit to monfils who played a really great match today, but he is just frustrated and probably had no time to recollect his thoughts at this moment.

retirement. Give Monfils the credit he is due YOUNG FELLA!.
The disrespect to Monfils with this statement…
Get over urself
monfils never beat djokovic so yeah
He’s not disrespecting him, he’s just saying he played really poorly which is true. The Cincinnati courts are some of the worst on the tour tbh, way too fast, it’s really difficult to control the ball. He knows that 99/100 times he beats monfils easily

Its so funny how yall think you can evaluate a player's performance more accurately than the actual player himself. Harshly criticizing his own game is somehow poor sportsmanship in your eyes, how twisted lmaooo
Thank you, someone else with some sanity remaining
These people have no relevance other than on the Internet
And he smashed the absolute s... hit out of a racket - if that was someone else they would be crucified for it.... Alcaraz told everyone he was going to win gold and "put on a show" before the Olympics final. he does need to check himself a bit.

Head up young champion you have many years in front of you HEAD UP ! All the best from Srbija
the comments are so weird… if you watched the match you would actually agree with what he said, monfils served well but that’s pretty much it.
Monfils has beated top 10 guys before alcaraz is not the first top 10. And he held his nerve better and experience helped him plus that sick first serve.
@@searefessahaye3554 i was talking about his performance in this particular match.

These fedal simps really have the audacity to argue about GOAT stats too?😳 I don't know If they use their brains or... 🤔
He thinks is already the GOAT thats the big problem with Alcatraz… 😂😂😂😂
He is still little lamb
He doesn’t think that but he eventually will be
@rudy1322 for Carlos to be the best and overtake novak he will need to play his whole career against the other 2 best players in history, which do not exist right now, and have 34 slams.
As it stands now Carlos may end up being the best in a rather weak era.
Novak got his against the absolute strongest roster of players in history, and it's not even close.
That's the problem with some of these young players that win and become top 10. It goes to their head. They should be more humble but they are not to blame. Examples, Iga, Shelton, Alcatraz, Coco etc.
They are pressured to continue winning.
Coco carried the Olympic flag, I don't think she was deserving of that. So many others were qualified but the USA team voted for her to do it. How do you think she feels after losing at the Olympics, she's losing her games now !!!!
Wrong, he is the baby GOAT.✌️
Tennis is a crazy sport. How someone like Carlos can just have an off day where you don’t know why but you can’t seem to get it going. Gives us amateurs a bit more comfort knowing the top pro’s go through this
Very humble of him in defeat…
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Carlos has to be one of the most arrogant players on the tour.The fist pump every five seconds!.
That’s a lame analysis, Carlos. Monfils is a competitive opponent. I think you’re also just still thrown off by your Olympic loss and the importance you placed on it.
And Monfils played great today thank you?!
LOOK AT THE STATS! His stats on server, ROS, Winner/Error ratio was all in the normal range. NOT his worst match at all! He's crying, like he does when he puts his finger to his ear begging for crowd attention. There is one stat that caused this defeat. He is ranked #16 in pressure situations (break points, tiebreaks, and 3rd sets). Sinner is #1. He collapsed in pressure moments as his record indicates. He couldn't lift his game in the tiebreak, break points, and the third set. Where's the smile? Oh, thats only when he wins. He is not Sinner, Federer, or Nadal in character or big moments. Send him a tissue
Stats were better than Monfils, pressure situations were his main problem.
Buddy Federer was terrible on break points conversion and don’t get me started on losing from match point up
Federer had the same problem as Alcaraz, that's why Djokovic got the better of him in their rivalry. Novak always played pressure points with greater success.
Carlos literally coming across like spoiled brat.
Should've appreciated Monfils, specially because he has been the most iconic and entertaining tennis player.
Absolute disrespect to Monfils. But the language barrier could be the reason he is talking in this way
Definitely not the same guy who just a couple of weeks ago... said in Spanish to a Spanish question "I'm going to win Gold so tune in and watch the show that I'm going to put on for you" like 2 days before the Olympic final.... Oh wait - IT IS!

Yo admiro a Carlos es mi favorito..estaré siempre con el,gane o pierda..sea feliz o se enoje y pierda el control..Felicitaciones❤❤
Still affected by the Olympics defeat. Not giving his opponent any credit is so bad.
Irrespectueux 😮😮😮🎉🎉 de sa part !!! Sa défaite est mérité 😊
Alcaraz will come back stronger in time and will win the US Open, i am sure. Good luck Carlos.
Weird attitude and press conference from Carlitos. The night before he was playing in the same court, same surface, same rival, and he won the first set... no problem. Second set got to tie break, no breaks allowed... Did they change the surface before dawn, just to annoy him?
Just accept that you lost and don't make excuses. Monfils won because he played better. Sometimes over confidence can humble a person.
Its your second defeats in a row Hello! Short memory you lost Gold!
Not atp, plus ratio, plus what where you doing at 21?, plus he got 2 slams this year
Monfils clean the floor with you Alcaraz.Such disrespect for Monfils who played great.
I can clearly see that he is under pressure from his own expectations of him.. That's the problem of growing so fast.. single step back or stagnancy makes you question how can I be so bad.. losing is inevitable sometimes.. you have to lose to keep growing.. How you behave in loss is what defines you as champ.. For me, smashing that racket is a much bigger concern than this loss.. You can not and should not crack up in loss if u are true champion.. Roger learnt that around 25 years of age.. Rafa is probably the only player who never did it and was at pro level in handling pressure from very young age.. Carlos will learn that soon I am sure.. he is a golden kid with brilliant support team and great coaching staff.. but he wil have to learn it sooner or later
First, congratulate Gael. In the end, congratulate Gael. How is this man coached?
*Tennis Knight Gael Monfils.* Great job.
Come down guys… this is NOT the whole interview what we saw here.
But if you see, what you want to see.. then yes, he did not congrats Monfils 😉
I definitely feel he’s got some personal issues going on at the moment, never seen him like that before
Just needs to work on his endurance imo every season he's started strong he starts to taper off just after Wimbledon
Fatigue … maybe.
Yeah, he got too big for his shoes, feels like some sort of Julius Caesar.
@@lilise3965 Yeah, that's why this is his best season with 2 slams on 3, 1 master 1000 and a silver medal
@@yesgu914 Life is long, better not throw your toys out of the pram when things don't go as you like. The universe doesn't owe us anything.
its not that deep he is human and played a terrible match .. def the worst match i ever seen from him and i watch every match .. but im sure he will bring his best tennis to the us open .. lets go 👑🔥
Carlos is a grand slam beast thats all😊
I totally don't agree this statement...That's DISRESPECT your opponent...Don't be childish Alcaraz..just admit your defeat...its just not your day...just give some credit to your senior...Once upon a time Gael is one of the best contenders....
he looked like a beginner to me on court. mostly uncomfortable with the court and balls and not really hitting any shots well. like he partied too much.
you havent gave a proper respect to Monfils, thats why you lost, or better got schooled by a very dangerous player on the day. Monfils is an incredibly skillfulled player, especially at this age giving Carlos well deserved humiliation
Your opponent????
His oppenent is so weak
@@parsar9577And imagine he is loosing against this "weak" opponent, pretty sad and just bad. Anyway.. You are also weak 🤡
good opponent - oh - he forgot to say it)
And still win😂😂@@parsar9577
all you guys mad at a 20yr kid who is literally at the upper echelon of a sport. give him some slack. yk how much pressure it is to be in his position. more success. more pressure.
When he loses, he is a kid, but when he wins, he is praised and pushed among the greatest in this sport. Far from a 'kid'
Gael is coming from the Big3 era, and today's match is a testament to how tough that era was. Alcaraz is losing in a row to players aged 36+ from that era.
In that era, Alcaraz would be just another talented player. Nothing more
Its easy to be gracious when things are going well. I always like to see how the players are, their true colour and face when things don't go on their way.
Everybody can smile and be warm in victories.
The failures allow us to check if a player is really classy or just pretending with a public relation mask.
*A man's character is best seen at defeat, not in victory.*
A genuine gentleman learned to accept defeats and give credits to his opponents.
When Novak mentioned about his lower level game at the Wimbledon and AO losses, people (mostly Fedal lovers) bashed him for giving excuses..
Now look how Alcaraz got away by talking much worse.
*"The worst match I have ever play"*
No credits given to the winner..
Djokovic haters exposes why they have 0 credibility: they apply constantly a miserable double standard in order to demonize Novak.
😆
Are there coaches' interviews? I would love to listen to Ferrero on this one
I feel Alcaraz needs to step up and mature his game and mental resilience, similar to how Jannik improved his quality tennis a lot in the past 12 months. The only way to do it is to get a better coach and team around him, a coach that can take him to the next level - similar to how jannik coach made a big difference in jannik advancement
@VH07654 He won two grand slams back to back a new coach is the last thing he needs😂
@@StacyLoscaright??? Mental resilience, what?????!! Next level, what?!!????😂
@VH07654 thank you for your opinion. The purpose of my comment is to know if there's a channel that shows coaches' opinions about players' games and stats. Do you know any?
@@StacyLosca thanks but you would need to look more closely at the performances during these slams as well as look at the stats. Alcaraz is great but worth noting that sinner had cramps during their match in Roland Garros and Novak’s knee injury made it difficult for him to run in matches at wimbeldon. Earlier this year, Novak even expressed his thought of skipping wimbeldon all together as he wanted to focus on the olympics so it makes sense that he didn’t fight much alcaraz in the wimbeldon finale this year but beat him in the Olympics (in 2 sets). I feel those factors contributed to alcaraz’ GS wins this year. Also Alcaraz match stats have gone down this year. He is making more unforced errors, missed serves, etc. His tennis was impeccable/ much better quality in 2022 and 2023. His tennis quality regressed this year and is becoming more and more inconsistent. I personally root and support alcaraz but doubt he will be able to maintain his current ATP ranking in the top 3 for the rest of the year
Surely you can see the improvement difference between sinner and alcaraz in the last 12 months and how it will likely impact the rest of the year
A bad loser. He should have congratulated that his opponent was a very player.
Um, sour grapes for sure by Carlos! This was not the worse match he has played, that is a blatant lie! Monfils played a great match! I'm so glad Novak beat him for the Gold Medal!
You're a poor tennis fan. They both played terrible
It was a terrible match for both, even statistics show better results for Carlos!It shows how bad they played.
@@jm_1214 It was not the worst Carlos played!
@@adrianam1009 Monfils played better than I thought he would!
Y’all haters acting wildly. The question and context was focused on him only. He still struggles a bit to formulate the correct sentences. Anyone that knows Carlos, knows he is not disrespectful at all. Y’all truly need to get over yourselves.
Carlos you will become legend if you learn to accept defeat. I can remember in 2004-2005, Novak always used to be defeated by Nadal/Federa in semis. He did not loose hope,changed his diet and leaned to deal with hostile spectator . He was playing wimbeldon final against Rodger ,100% audience were cheering Rodger, Novak trained in such a way that when audience was chanting Rodger , he was hearing Nole. Learn from your idol RAFA ,he never broke racket,still got 22 gland slams. Hope you will learn, you are very young and potential to be on top next 10 years. You are blessed to have excellent support staff (parents also),they will help you before US open
Always comparing him with Novak, don’t you have a better argument ?
Stop asking him so many questions. English is not his first language and it's annoying and frustrating to listen to him respond with so many "Uhs" after every two words. Uh, Uh.
You reporters, give him a break. It's really annoying to listen two. He's not the only one by the way.
*_Phone call_* *by grandpa Monfils.*
*Weak era without Djoker, Roger and Rafa, the big 3 (and Murray in his prime).*
I think I'll stop following tennis when Nole the G.O.A.T. retires. These young buddies don't interest me.
Good. Don't let the door hit your ass
@@jm_1214
Cry, cry, cry! 😂
R.I.P. young spanish buddy (21 years old), defeated by a grandpa (37 years old, almost 38).
f buddies
We the tennis lovers will miss you, don’t go. Your comments are really “important “Still you can watch old tennis matches in RUclips✌️
I don't care about tennis without Nole.
Sinner and Alcaraz will be able to win everything they want once Djoker retires.
For me tennis will never be the same without Nole, Roger and Rafa. R.I.P. tennis without them. This is my point.
Greetings.
Wow, the haters are out in force.
On the other hand, his toxic fanboys have disappeared
No credit to opponent just my worst match.
Carlos please...
This is just immaturity plain and simple… Carlos will continue his incredible march towards historic success, but today he played poorly and interviewed even worse…
He's 21 years old, humble, respectful, caring and generous to his community and country. He has recently won IW, RG, Wimbledon and an Olympic silver medal and yet is so hated by so many jealous, small and awful people who have accomplished nothing in their lives in comparison. You would think that he's committed some heinous crime by losing a tennis match and expressing frustration with his performance. It's astounding people. It's sad. Carlos deserves better than this.
Well we know who those people are and they are indeed pathetic.
I am a fan of Carlos, but sometimes he needs to lose ugly 😭😭, I think the overnight benefits monfils . I like both guys. Carlos is young he will reset, he can't win it all. Let it out it's not that serious.
I mean...for sure he didn't play a great match but not mentioning even one time Gael (beating him at 37) it's not as word class as Carlos way to play tennis.
I've never seen Carlos bang up his racquet like that.... No one is commenting on that. Wow
I have when he was not pro - he had a temper!
No humble in this golden boy what a shame 😤
Un gamin 🧒 gâter 😂😂😂😊😊😊😮😮😅
I'm a Carlos fan, but he did not seem acclimated to the hard courts after a summer of grass and clay. I'm sure his team will help him get ready. that was a big win for Monfils and too bad he lost just a few hours later and could not move ahead in the tournament.
JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA BEING DISRESPECTFUL AND LOOSING IN FIRST ROUND 😂😂😂 JAJAJAJAJAJA CLOOOWN WITH BIG MOUT CRY
Second round
It explains pretty well the feeling I get a few times a year when I have to play official games.
*as an amateur
I think Credit should be Given to Monfis for making C A R L I T O look that way.
C a r l i t o S - again, with S
@@ChanquetePT_IA💅🤡💅
This kid is such a whiner...acts like an entitled and spoiled brat everytime ive seen him
This is similar to Rafa losing to Fognini in MC and saying that was his worst match ,on clay.Well ,it was.
😂😂😂verissimo 😢😢😮😮
that’s a stretch
rafa lost in straight sets that match nearly got bagelled
alcaraz was much closer to winning and realistically could’ve had more things gone his way
Montfils is a pro u had won 5 straight sets. U looked a step behind. Montfils red lined his game. Anger management!!!
