Third seed Alcaraz last year played some exceptional tennis to beat Tsitsipas 6-2 6-1 7-6(5) and earn a spot in the last four of Roland-Garros for the first time in his career. Having won all five of their previous meetings, 21-year-old Alcaraz is eyeing a third Grand Slam crown while he tries to bury the heartbreak of last year’s semi-final loss, where he suffered severe cramps against eventual champion Novak Djokovic. Tsitsipas, however, will have hope of causing an upset at Court Philippe-Chatrier in the night session given his recent form. The 25-year-old won his third Monte Carlo title in April after beating heavyweights Casper Ruud, Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev.
“I love these kinds of matches,” Alcaraz said after thrashing 21st-seed Felix Auger Aliassime in the fourth round on Sunday. “I’ve seen a lot of matches lately from Stefanos. I know he’s playing great tennis and has a lot of confidence right now. “I have the key against him. I’ll try to play the shots that get him in trouble.
