Despite only playing a singles match since April due to a wrist injury, Alcaraz has dropped just one set through three matches. In the match, Alcaraz pulled away late in the third set, winning the final five games to close out the match in 2 hours, 20 minutes. He will face first seeded Tommy Paul in the fourth round.",
