Carlos was so happy to play in front of Federer. What a great match to watch. Laver cup brings out just as much desire to win like any Masters 1000 event. Am sure we will see a stronger B Shelton in the future. Carlos looking good
It is ridiculous how Carlos FH seemed to not be working so good as usual (still incredibly good, but not the top of his game), but Carlos says, "nah, my serve, return and backhand can do the job"....146 km/h BH on a rally is just mindblowing. He out-served Shelton on the 1st and 2nd....and 0 double faults, just mind-boggling.
Shelton can really keep up with guys like Alcaraz. But against tactical players who use his (sometimes mindless)power against him is difficult…Remember his loss against mannarino at Australian open this year
Nice to see Roger Federer in the crowd. Rafa should have played doubles again with Roger at this year´s Laver Cup and end his career afterwards. But somehow Rafa just can't quit.
That demonstrates that Shelton is just the hype. Shelton was merely a show, but Alcaraz was in it to win. losing the point with a less successful return after making an unnecessary attempt to win with an ace.
Never understood Shelton forehand.. I feel he is struggling hitting forehand... The shape is so ugly... Poor consistency... Every time finish around the head... He has bad rotation
Shelton is just a big hitter and a clunky mover. If he took two seconds to consider placement, weight of shot and employed a more mature match strategy, his obvious power would work to his advantage. Time and time again, I watch the best players using his power against him, by take shots early, which puts the pressure right back on Shelton feet before he's even finished his service swing and stroke.
Shelton tape fort, il n'a peur de personne, a un ego surdimensionné, et ça donne un jeu étonnant, super excitant, mais en vérité depuis trois ans qu'il est sur le circuit, il fait tellement de fautes directes, je ne vois aucun progrès de tournois en tournois sur ce plan, ça commence à être inquiétant. Plus il tape fort, plus il fait de fautes au troisième ou quatrième échange. Il n'a plus d'énergie et plus du tout de tactique plus les matchs avancent...
No way, only about 1.2 times better. (20%) If someone is only 5 times better than you he would beat you 6-0 - 6-0. Alcatraz lost recently against two low ranking players. (and against 37 years Djokovic)
Lo siguen inflando a este niñito, Shelton no tiene todo el auspicio , periodismo entre otras cosas sin embargo el niñito le gana con las justas jajajaa😂😂
Good to see Carlos back in spectacular form.
This Alcaraz guy is just incredible. Shelton as playing excellently but met someone right on fire.
Shelton never beat Djokovic at a Grand Slam, but Alcaraz did, mentally he's got that advantage.
It seems Shelton had way too many unforced errors, which against someone like Alcaraz, proved to be detrimental.
@@Birdylockso Ben had to go for it all against Carlos, those errors will happen Naturally.
FANTASTIC TENNIS....

Even Federer probably thinking, I'll beat Shelton next, after Alcaraz.
Well said.
@@pauljohnson6019well, he schooled the next gen at some point before
@@parkhae-il9211 Yes, Fed still the best, can still win the top players with his natural talent alone.
@@pauljohnson6019fr federer watching like “i shoulda been playing”
Thank you for the highlights. Really appreciate it.
Agreed. Unlike some other channels, the sound actually matches the video! LOL.
THAT was spectacular Tennis. Kudos to BOTH players. No mercy given. No handouts received. WoW! Thank you for sharing xxx
WOW!!! Guns blazing on both sides. Exciting tennis!
Increible!
What a beautiful sound of the shots
Shelton can’t live with Alcaraz long enough to break through. You knew the errors were coming. Good match though!
Not only the errors, Alcaraz out-played him in the little game where handskill counts.
True@@quentinhirschfeld9382
I would love to counsel Ben Shelton and just help him straighten out his mind so he can WIN.
Carlos' backhand is insane here, it's like he's gathering strength more to his backhand than his forehand
Sheltons smash a thing of beauty 😊
He's a bit like nikki kirgoos, somewhat of a showoff, never winning a major: he will be forgotten.🤣
This match is very special.
Both guys- master's of ball rotation.
And their's slices and top spin's-
Just pure beauty for me...
Alcaraz volleys are incredible 😅
VAMOOS CARLITOOOOOSS! VAMOOOOOS EUROPA!
Carlos Alcaraz tenisin yeni kralı olağanüstü bambaşka bir seviye 👏👏👏💪💪💪💪
Bravo Carlos, excelente tenis de ambos. 👏
Lovely highlights 👍
Good Job my boy Alcaraz, performing gracefully in front of Roger.
Murdering the ball.

THANK my DREAM CARLITOS💞, SHELTON 6:4 6:4 beaten👏🏾👏🏾‼️ KARIN♥️
Vamos Carlitos!!
FLAWLESS video, thank you

Great match 😊
Amazing match..best young player
😮 amazing match congrats Carlos just a intense game to watch Carlos of course had more moves to win,nice to see my favorite federer watching match
This is the Carlos I want to watch
That was a must win for Europe 👍
IT was wonderful , IT was Joy, IT was 2 fighters. Thank you.
Frumos meci!! ❤❤
Both played amazing!!!
shelton played out of his mind! he did so well. I can't believe nobody's talking about this
Those overhead smashes from Shelton were amazing
Nice to see Roger Federer in the crowd. Rafa should have played doubles again with Roger at this year´s Laver Cup and end his career afterwards. But somehow Rafa just can't quit.
Shelton its beast , but Alcaraz its out of this planet XD
Shelton has the greatest overhead smash I've ever seen.
Great match, so entertaining!
Shelton is fast and explosive but his footwork looks like a mess.
He always seems off balance. Seldom in position for a shot.
it’s ok ben. we know you’re probably bigger down there
Someone got addicted to Blacked??😂😂😂
He is arrogant little American needs to become humble. Great shots bad attitude.
Alcaraz’s backhand 😮😮😮
Cmon it's Alcaraz 😂 don't let you keyboard aid you next time when typing it
His name is Alcaraz, Alcatraz is an inland in the USA
@@collinsansah6535 😂
He channeled his 'inner Djokovic,' very similar style, no wonder he is the best player in the world, apart from Sinner.
Unbelievable level of tennis. Those two are going to have some great battles
1:17 What a smash
So marvelous!!
Great match!
Pity Team Europe is trailing. Carlos did his part to get 2 points today but Medvedev and Zverev failed.
que partidazo !!!
Shelton should play padel, he could blast the ball as much as he wants.
Ben is like the Harlem Globetrotters...
Carlos is like them, too, but also like Jordan.
I think this alcatraz guy has potential to become a solid top 20 player like Thomas muster
totalmente de acuerdo
Lo has clavao, tú
Please dont confuse his name. It is Alcaraz and not Alcatraz.
😆😅🤣😂
@@anasiongok4465 true & funny😂
Que buen saque tiene Ben
Solo que me recuerda mcuho a Jack sock su compatriota, le pegan muy fuerte a la pelota 🥎 pro falta tantito control.
Creo yo

Muy bien Alcaraz pero tiene que ver muchos partidos de Federer para aprender más 😊
in the whole video I thought it was a time-laps recording- too speed 1.5
Another reality check for NZR.
after this game. i am getting curious about shelton
Never understood Shelton forehand.. I feel he is struggling hitting forehand... The shape is so ugly... Poor consistency... Every time finish around the head... He has bad rotation
The grey court is appalling, depressive
100%
Lovey Tennis but Alcatraz does my Brain in
Is that why you're calling him Alcatraz and not Alcaraz?

Time and time again, I watch the best players using his power against him, by take shots early, which puts the pressure right back on Shelton feet before he's even finished his service swing and stroke.
Shelton reminds me of Madison Keys
Carlos is brilliant when he is brilliant but as we have seen he is capable of major WOBBLES and of being wobbled
Carlos needs to study Nadal's inside-out forehand. It's just not there.
Great match from both players.....was going to say "looks like the Alcaraz of old", but what is he? Like still 20 years old? :)

@@Mojonavalle Thanks, still so young, and 4 GS titles!
ДЕТСКИЙ ЛЕ ПЕТ!!!

Shelton overhead 1:18 is the best that I have seen in ages. What an athlete! he'll be USA #1
Hire Andre to fix return game and you are a slam champ Ben.

Pace
keep on keeping on, king Ben. The Best Is Yes To Come! MARK MY WORDS!!
Camera TOO FAR AWAY!!!😮
Streaky Shelton today. Wish he would can that bc he does have everything just not when he really needs it!
Filmed on iphone 4
Shelton;s screms cnt make him win against Top alcaraz and will never ever... Alacarz 20 times better than Shelton..
I love Alcatraz but Shelton is very capable of winning as well. He’s just pretty new.
YOU sound stupid. Carlos got schooled all summer after Wimbledon.
No way, only about 1.2 times better. (20%) If someone is only 5 times better than you he would beat you 6-0 - 6-0. Alcatraz lost recently against two low ranking players. (and against 37 years Djokovic)
still a draw!! C'mon Europe !!!!!!!!!
If the court was faster it would’ve favored Ben
Carlos is making too many unforced errors, Shelton is worse. Shelton still has a lot to improve on, patients and consistency
Sheldon, simply, can’t handle pressure. If he gets past this hurdle, he’ll be home free. The competition is stiff.
Why every event now on slow bouncy courts?
Shelton has more drive and unico - pero Alcaraz muy mejor como Child Shelton
An intelligent person would never have a facial expression as in the thumbnail...
Serve-bot Shelton lost again 🤣
Lo siguen inflando a este niñito, Shelton no tiene todo el auspicio , periodismo entre otras cosas sin embargo el niñito le gana con las justas jajajaa😂😂
ALCAZAR is the Best 👏👏
The other guy was average.
But did a bodybuilder play tennis?
