US Open 2023: Alcaraz advances to the second round and criticizes Rubiales | Video
The Spanish Carlos Alcaraznumber one in the ATP ranking, began his defense of the US Open eliminating the German Dominik Koepfer, 75th in the world, who had to retire due to injury in the second set, and also criticized the behavior of Luis Rubialespresident of the RFEF, for his non-consensual kiss to Jenny Beautiful.

“I have followed the matter. Obviously it is something that has caused a lot of talk, I think in Spain much more. We are here and we do not know everything that has been formed there in Spain. But the fact that it has come this far already says what a magnitude it is,” said the Spaniard.
My opinion is that, I will be honest, these are attitudes that a senior official does not have to show. It is my only opinion that I am going to give on the matter. And let's hope that it is resolved soon since the women's team has made a historic achievement and that not so much credit has been given for what has happened is a shame.
