6-4, 6-4

THE MODERATOR: Congratulations, Carlos. Would you say that this is the best match you have played so far this week?

CARLOS ALCARAZ: Yeah, this was my best match so far, and I'm going to say my best match on grass. Considering the three tournaments that I played on grass, I could say that was my best match.

THE MODERATOR: Questions in English.

Q. You just mentioned that it was your best grass court match you have played. You've just beat an excellent grass court player in Grigor. What adjustments have you made to the grass court surface this year in comparison to your previous seasons? Not that you were being weaker on grass, but clearly that wasn't the case today.

CARLOS ALCARAZ: Well, I have more experience than the previous season than, you know, in 2021, 2022. I feel more mature. I feel more, you know, yeah, with more experience, you know, playing on grass.

You know, as I said before, these two matches that I have played before this one helped me a lot to have more confidence and move well, move better, let's say.

Yeah, it has been my best match. I felt great, I move great, I hit the ball great. I would say everything that I have done today, it was perfect.

You know, but I'm just really happy and, you know, it gave me a lot of confidence to semifinal.
