Carlos Alcaraz returns to the circuit after a week off following his runner-up finish in the Six Kings Slam 2025. The Spanish player, world number one, will arrive at the French event as the favorite, but without the extra nerves as he is not defending a title.
During the media day of this ATP Rolex Paris Masters 2025, the press conference prior to the start of the tournament, Carlos Alcaraz talked about his feelings heading into this indoor swing, as well as the current moment as he enters the French tournament.
Carlos Alcaraz and his complaint about the schedule
“I don’t have an exact number of matches we should play, I can’t give an exact figure, but they obviously need to do something about the schedule. The number of tournaments we have to play is too high. We don’t have enough time to train and rest. Even during the season, I think it’s week after week and we don’t have the chance to have a week to prepare well for the tournaments or what awaits us in the season.”
Alcaraz talks about the court speed at the ATP Rolex Paris Masters 2025
“This year is totally different from last year. It’s much slower than last year, but I think it’s a really good speed, we can see tennis, not just serves, or just one-shot serves. There can be rallies, points, tennis, so I think it’s great. Obviously, I’ve said many times that I like slower courts, not so fast. This tournament is not my best in terms of results, but I love playing here. I’m not very used to playing indoor, but year after year, I think I’m getting better.”
Alcaraz analyzes his indoor level
“I wouldn’t say I’m bad at playing on indoor courts. I think other players are better than me on indoor courts. It’s a big difference. I see myself training, playing matches where I can play very well, but obviously I’ve had some matches against others who play much better on indoor courts than I do. I have to be prepared for that, but I think I’ll be able to play well on indoor courts. Turin is very important to me, but obviously the Davis Cup, playing with my teammates representing my country, is very special.”
