PARIS—Third seed Carlos Alcaraz sparkled and showed steely resolve in his most convincing match at the French Open this year for a 6–4, 7–6 (5), 6–3 victory over American Sebastian Korda to reach the fourth round of Roland Garros on Friday.
Still wearing a compression sleeve after a recent forearm issue, Alcaraz produced a stellar show in a rematch of the duo’s 2022 encounter to firmly put himself back in the conversation as the favourite to lift the title in Paris and a third major.
