Álex de Minaur - Carlos Alcaraz live | Alcaraz defeats De Minaur and wins the Vienna tournament for the first time

Carlos Alcaraz defeated Álex de Miñaur this Sunday in the final of the Vienna tournament, a third category tournament—ATP 500—. The first set couldn't have started better for the Spanish tennis player, who broke his rival's serve at 40-0 down. He later suffered on his first serve, but managed to save a break ball and then broke the Australian's serve again, who scored his first game with the score at 4-0. But Alcaraz then saved his serve and broke his rival again to score the first set of the final with a resounding 6-1. In the second round Alcaraz did not slow down, but De Minaur was more involved in the match than in the first, although he did suffer in his first two serves to save them. The match was tied, but with 5-4 in favor, the Murcian broke the Australian's serve and won his first trophy in the Vienna tournament.

Carlos Alcaraz is sure to have a lot to say between now and the end of 2026. His next appointment will be the Paris Masters 1000 where he is exempt in the first round and will play in the second with the winner of the match between Michelsen and Lehecka.

And after this tournament in Vienna, the circuit will start with its last month of competition of the year, with the Masters 1000 that puts an end to the season, Paris, the Nitto ATP Finals and the Davis Cup final.

De Minaur improved in the second set and did not collapse despite having given in forcefully in the first set. But at the decisive moment he failed again to give victory to Alcaraz.

Brilliant week for the Murcian tennis player who has not given up a single set in the entire tournament. He gave Álex de Minaur no options in a great first set in which the Australian was only able to win one game.

POINT, GAME, SET, MATCH AND TITLE FOR CARLOS ALCARAZ. Impressive finish for the Murcian who is proclaimed champion in Vienna. He is the second Spaniard to achieve this under the ATP 500 format after David Ferrer in 2015.
