Spain's Alcaraz wins Paris Masters for first time
PARIS: Carlos Alcaraz gained a measure of revenge on Ben Shelton on Sunday as the seven-time Grand Slam champion beat the American 7-6 (7/5), 7-5 to win the Paris Masters for the first time.
In Paris, Carlos Alcaraz secured his first Paris Masters title by defeating Ben Shelton with a score of 7-6 (7/5), 7-5 on Sunday. The 23-year-old Spaniard avenged his loss to Shelton in the US Open earlier this season. The match, which lasted under two hours, was shorter than their quarter-final clash in New York two months prior.
With this victory, Alcaraz now boasts five tour-level titles this year, while Shelton, the world number four, suffered his first Masters final defeat after winning the previous two editions of the Canadian Open.
