In professional wrestling phrases, Carlos Alcaraz turned heel Friday in seconds. The defending Wimbledon champion basked within the cheers at Centre Courtroom after clinching a berth in Sunday’s final, solely to show round and take a delicate jab on the English crowd.
“It will be a extremely good day for Spanish individuals,” Alcaraz mentioned, referencing the Spain versus England Euro 2024 final, which can also be scheduled for Sunday.
Because the boos grew louder, Alcaraz clarified that he technically by no means predicted that the English would lose the Euro ultimate.
“I did not say Spain goes to win, I am simply saying it is going to be a extremely enjoyable day,” he mentioned.
