Facing Carlos Alcaraz at Wimbledon was the most special day of my life. I mixed it with the five-time grand slam winner before succumbing to defeat.
I knew that the first set might be difficult because it's not a stage that I'm used to. Even though the first set scoreline was 6-1, I still had break points.
I definitely had chances in the match, which should give me confidence that I was competing. Credit to him, he plays the big points just incredibly well.
It was important for me going into the match to enjoy it. I was trying to also play some good tennis at the same time.
