Carlos Alcaraz gives verdict on first Laver Cup outing after special Roger Federer visit…see more

They finally reunited in Berlin this week. And Friday night’s doubles match was Federer’s first-ever opportunity to watch the four-time Major winner in action.

Afterwards, Alcaraz said: ”Well, it was great, honestly, playing in front of him. “It’s the first time that he watch one of my matches in real life, and I’m really happy that he was there, you know, watching our doubles.”

But the 21-year-old is hoping that Federer will be back to watch him at his best, in the singles. “As I said, he watch doubles match.

Well, I think I’m good but I’m not as good as the singles, I guess,” Alcaraz smiled. “I hope to see him tomorrow in the singles. I hope he enjoyed the doubles match.

Obviously was great seeing him in the practice. He didn’t tell me any tactic, any advice, but I mean, he just told me that he’s really happy about watching me in real life, that I’m here.
