Greg Rusedski says if he thinks Carlos Alcaraz is now back to his best after beating Matteo Arnaldi at the Japan Open

Carlos Alcaraz advanced further at the Japan Open after navigating a tough challenge from Matteo Arnaldi. Following a close first-set tiebreak battle, the defending champion raised his level to secure a straight-sets victory.

Tennis analyst Greg Rusedski noted that while the Spaniard is steadily improving with each round, he has not yet reached his absolute peak form following a lengthy absence due to a wrist injury. Alcaraz now moves on to face Denis Shapovalov in the quarter-finals.
