Carlos Alcaraz – Yibing Wu: when and where to watch the US Open 2026 match

Carlos Alcaraz faces the Chinese Yibing Wu this Friday, September 4th, in the third round, a player who is outside the ATP Top 100. The Spaniard comes from playing a four-set match in the second round against the Portuguese Jaime Faria, “something very good” according to the tennis player, as it gave him the opportunity to see how his body responded after nearly five months away from the courts due to an injury in April in Barcelona. As he did after overcoming the first round, the 23-year-old player from El Palmar preferred not to go to the complex and trained exclusively at his hotel.

“I have been training normally, hitting forehands very freely and without thinking about the wrist, neither during training nor during matches,” said the Murcian, who returned to competition in New York for the US Open. “I know that once I step on the court, I have to go all out on every shot. I have to feel normal and hit like I did before the injury. And then, we’ll see what happens. Right now I feel great. There is no reason to be afraid and not hit normally,” he concluded in a press conference.
