Carlos Alcaraz won his second Masters 1,000 this Sunday after beating German Alexander Zverev 6-3, 6-1 in the final of the Mutua Madrid Open. With this victory, the Spanish tennis player and next number six in the ATP, has already lifted his fourth title so far this year.
In economic terms, the victory of Carlos Alcaraz in the Mutua Madrid Open will generate income for the Murcian tennis player of 1,041,570 euros, 230.5% compared to last year’s prizes. For his part, the finalist Alexander Zverev corresponds to 568,790 euros, 202.1% more than 2021.
Other tennis players like Novak Djokovic, semi-finalist, or Rafa Nadal quarter-finalist, have also taken a pretty juicy booty. The Serbian, who fell to Alcaraz, has pocketed 311,025 euros (+191.5% than in 2021), and the Balearic, who was also eliminated by the Murcian tennis player, has taken 169,650 euros (+190.7% than in 2021).
Carlos Alcaraz’s journey to lift the Mutua Madrid Open title has not been easy at all. His debut was against the Georgian Nikoloz Basilashvili, whom he defeated in two sets (3-6 and 5-7); in the round of 16 he ‘charged’ the British Cameron Norrie in three sets (4-6, 7-6 and 3-6); in the quarterfinals he eliminated Rafa Nadal in three sets (2-6, 6-1 and 3-6); and Serbian Novak Djokovic in the semifinals, also in three sets (7-6, 5-7 and 6-7).
