Carlos Alcaraz began his grass-court season in remarkable fashion by defeating Francisco Cerundolo 6-1, 7-5 in the first round at Queen's Club on Tuesday.
The 21-year-old Spaniard returned to competitive play after his French Open triumph, extending his grass-court winning streak to an impressive 13 matches.
This winning streak harkens back to last summer when Alcaraz clinched the Queen's Club title and subsequently overcame Novak Djokovic in the Wimbledon final. Currently ranked No. 2 in the world, Alcaraz boasts a career record of 17-2 on grass courts and remains unbeaten in 13 matches against players ranked outside the top 20 on this surface. Cerundolo, his recent opponent, holds the No. 26 spot.
