Carlos Alcaraz stormed into his first Masters final in 13 months with victory over Alejandro Davidovich Fokina 7-6(2) 6-4, but not before his Spanish compatriot saved five match points in a gruelling encounter.

Carlos Alcaraz says he "cannot wait to try my luck again" on the clay when he faces Lorenzo Musetti in the Monte Carlo Masters final.

This hasn’t been the electric, all-out Carlos Alcaraz we’re used to seeing—at least not this week.  His play has been more hesitant, marked by inconsistency.
