Cameron Norrie Upsets No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz at Paris Masters, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4

The defeat leaves Alcaraz’s No. 1 status at risk, with Jannik Sinner able to reclaim it by winning Paris.

Overview

  • Carlos Alcaraz said he “didn’t feel well,” had “no feeling at all,” and was disappointed with his level in the loss.
  • Alcaraz committed 54 unforced errors and struggled with timing and movement on the slow indoor court at La Défense Arena.
  • He was seen arguing with coach Juan Carlos Ferrero, later attributing it to a mistaken tactical approach for the conditions.
  • The result ends Alcaraz’s recent Masters 1000 winning run, reported at 17 matches, and halts his Paris campaign in the second round.
  • Live rankings show Alcaraz around 11,240 points to Jannik Sinner’s 10,510, and the Spaniard now turns to the ATP Finals and Davis Cup to regroup.
