- Carlos Alcaraz moved into the Japan Open final with a three-set victory over fellow Spaniard Jaume Munar on Monday.
- Alcaraz had some issues with his serve in the first set and Munar took advantage to snatch the opening set 7-5.
- However, Alcaraz regained control after that as he only dropped four games across the next two sets, sealing a 5-7, 6-3, 6-1 win.
- Alcaraz is aiming to win his first title following a four-month layoff due to a wrist injury that forced him to miss the French Open and Wimbledon.
- Alcaraz returned at last month’s US Open and made the quarter-finals, while he was part of Team Europe’s triumph in the Laver Cup last weekend.
