The beaten land calendar is condensed, exciting and very demanding. Placed in the spring months is an impressive challenge that requires fresh legs, a steel mind and a regularity that removes the hypo. You can not always play a tennis without macula and it is in those days where you are at the expense of the rival’s virtues. And in the Final of Godó the opponent granted Carlos Alcaraz very little. Holger Rune won because he was relentless and impeccable, with the strongest and most constant game of his career. Carlos Alcaraz and Holger Rune Enric Fontcuberta / Efe The jump from the junior category to the senior is always a complex step. There are, the best and most early, which ascend him from a jump. It is what an Alcaraz did that very soon broke old barriers. But not all of his generation partners did it so fast. Like Rune. Yes, he has titles in his history. Yes, he has been aiming high for three or four years. But he hadn’t finished breaking. With what was seen in recent weeks, the Danish has offered symptoms of unappealable maturity. The Spanish public for many years to the unparalleled voracity of Rafa Nadal on clay the most normal and even the most logical thing is that there is no dominator on this surface. The Manacorense was certainly Martian, even if it became everyday and predictable. Despite the defeat against a great Rune the closest thing to this responds to the last name Alcaraz. In a year he had only lamented a defeat on Earth, in front of Rublev in Madrid. He already has two titles in the Godó, a Roland Garros or a Montecarlo, for example. With only 21 years it is a magnificent record with a lot of seasons ahead and without anyone from their fifth being able to say the same. The earth demands to have fresh legs and a steel mind: the Danish was better in both aspects to understand that the Alcaraz game, full of quality and variety, is artistic and the artists not every day present the same level of inspiration. The Murcian plays with the wrist, with those left, with the risk. His tennis peaks are a delight for sight, pure goldsmith. It is that alcaraz that overflows, that you never know where it will come out, that smiles by system and that entertains the respectable. That Alcaraz to some extent chop and thrown in front because it presents multiple reasons to show off. But it cannot always be at the best height of itself. Although he has taken flight with his triumph in Montecarlo he was not against Rune. We must assess the benefits of the Danish, with a more whole physicist than that of the Murcian, with a firmer pulse at the important points and with a less saturated mind to get out of any situation that the Murcia raised. Rune is a brilliant champion who was crowned in the Barcelona week of tennis, overflowing with health and led by an excellent organization. Seeing the Rafa Nadal track full of public from Monday to Sunday only makes certifying how entrenched the Godó trophy is in the city. A classic that is assuming the demands of modern times without losing the unmistakable aroma that always accompanies it.
