Spain's top seed, Alcaraz

"I feel good, the fight was up and down from the start, so it's a great achievement to be able to beat that kind of strong opponent." Lehecka, ranked No. 25 in the world men's singles, played a very destructive baseline shot and showed strong resilience, and fought back from 2:4 in the deciding set, and ended the former king Alcaraz's 7 consecutive wins since Rotterdam in 4 games, 1 career pair and 1 loss, and also the first time to knock down the Top 3, "I believe in myself, I know that I have the ability to play such tennis." If you can be more consistent in the competition, you will be able to achieve more and more good results. ”

The 23-year-old Leheka is back in the semi-finals of the Doha Men's Open since 2023 and will compete with British eighth seed Draper for a ticket to the men's singles final.
