Carlos Alcaraz has masterfully transitioned from the clay courts of Roland Garros to the lush grass of London, showcasing his adaptability and hunger for more titles. Fresh off an epic, historic victory against Jannik Sinner in the French Open final, the young Spaniard swiftly shifted his focus to the grass-court season, with Wimbledon firmly in his sights.

Just nine days after his unforgettable comeback in Paris, Alcaraz returned to the match court at the Queen's Club Championships, a key warm-up event for Wimbledon. Despite a late change of opponent due to illness, Alcaraz secured his first grass-court win of the season against Adam Walton. He expressed his joy at being back in London and playing on grass again, acknowledging the challenges of adjusting to the surface and competition so soon after the French Open. Alcaraz emphasized the limited time he had to recover and prepare, underlining his desire for more time to savor his Roland Garros victory.

His journey at Queen's Club was not without its challenges. In the second round, Alcaraz faced a tough three-setter against compatriot Jaume Munar, in a match that lasted three hours and 26 minutes, the longest at Queen's in 34 years. He then captured his 250th tour-level win by defeating Roberto Bautista Agut in the semi-final, securing his return to the Queen's Club final.

In a thrilling final against Jiri Lehecka, Alcaraz battled through three sets to claim his second Queen's Club title. After narrowly losing a tight second-set tie-break, he regained control in the deciding set, securing a 7-5, 6-7(5), 6-2 victory. This win marked his 21st ATP trophy and fourth grass-court title, matching the achievements of his compatriots Rafael Nadal and Feliciano Lopez. Alcaraz now boasts an impressive 29-3 win record on grass, placing him in excellent stead for Wimbledon.

Alcaraz himself admitted that he had "no expectations" coming into the grass-court season, focusing instead on getting ready for Wimbledon as quickly as possible. He expressed his pride in how he improved each day, adapting to the grass and becoming a different player on the surface.

With this victory, Alcaraz heads to Wimbledon on an 18-match winning streak, the longest of his career. Since his early defeat in Miami, he has been in remarkable form, winning titles in Monte Carlo, Rome, Roland Garros, and now Queen's Club. He is now just 1,130 points behind Jannik Sinner in the ATP rankings.

Interestingly, Alcaraz and his team have chosen to forgo any exhibition matches before Wimbledon, opting instead for rest and recovery. This decision highlights the grueling nature of his recent schedule, particularly the epic French Open final. As the defending champion, Alcaraz is preparing for his debut on Centre Court, aware of the challenges ahead. His recent form has made him a favorite for the title, and he is on track to potentially face his top rival, Jannik Sinner, in a highly anticipated final showdown which could be a repeat of their epic Roland Garros final.
