Cramp‑hit Alcaraz says quitting never crossed mind in Melbourne epic

Australian Open

MELBOURNE, Jan 30 : Carlos Alcaraz described his five‑set win over Alexander Zverev in the Australian Open semi-finals as one of the most demanding matches of his career, saying he never once thought of quitting even as crippling cramp threatened to stop him in his tracks. The world number one looked to be cruising at two sets to love but began struggling to move at 4-4 in the third set as the cramp affected his right thigh, but he soldiered on to complete a 6-4 7-6(5) 6-7(3) 6-7(4) 7-5 win.
