Carlos Alcaraz lauded for his stunning act of sportsmanship at French Open

An image collage containing 2 images, Image 1 shows The crowd applauded Carlos Alcaraz for his display of sportsmanship, Image 2 shows Carlos Alcaraz went on to defeat Ben Shelton (r.) PARIS — Carlos Alcaraz conjured up what initially appeared — to the chair umpire, to everyone watching in the stands or on TV and to his opponent, Ben Shelton — a remarkable lunging volley to win a point at the French Open on Sunday. But Alcaraz knew it shouldn't count. So after briefly thinking about it, the defending champion at Roland-Garros fessed up and called himself for breaking the rules, handing the point to Shelton during what would become a 7-6 (8), 6-3, 4-6, 6-4 victory for Alcaraz in the fourth round. Advertisement 'It's a shame, because it was the 'Hot Shot' of the day,' Alcaraz said later with a smile. Carlos Alcaraz conceded a point to opponent Ben Shelton during their French Open match as he wasn't holding his racket when it touched the ball. X 'Crazy shot,' Shelton said. Here's what happened: Early in the second set, Shelton whipped a passing shot well out of Alcaraz's reach up at the net. So Alcaraz flung his racket — and, as his equipment flipped through the air, its strings somehow not only made contact with the ball but sent it back over the net and onto the other side of the court. Initially, the second-seeded Alcaraz was awarded the point. But he went over to the chair umpire to admit that he wasn't holding his racket when it touched the ball. That's not allowed, so he conceded the point to Shelton, an American seeded 13th. As Carlos Alcaraz's racket flipped in the air, the equipment made contact with the ball. X The crowd applauded Carlos Alcaraz for his display of sportsmanship. Getty Images When the official informed the Court Philippe-Chatrier crowd what had happened, Alcaraz was given a round of applause. Advertisement 'I thought, 'OK, I could not say anything.' But I would have felt guilty if I didn't say anything,' Alcaraz explained. 'It's just about if I know that I didn't (do), or I did, a wrong thing. … I have to say. I have to be honest with myself. I have to be honest with Ben, with everyone. … It's just about the respect we have against each other, and I think that sports, in general, should be like this.' It came at what could have been a critical moment, because instead of leading 40-30 on his serve, Alcaraz was now down 30-40, giving Shelton his first break point of the match. But Alcaraz saved that one — and five others in that 20-point game — along the way to taking a two-set lead in an entertaining matchup between a pair of 22-year-olds who hit the ball hard. Carlos Alcaraz went on to defeat Ben Shelton (r.) REUTERS 'I thought it was clean, you know? I thought he hit the volley, and (then) the racket flew out of his hand,' Shelton said. 'I was kind of surprised that he was, like, 'No, I let go of the racket and threw it.' … Obviously a guy with a lot of sportsmanship.' Advertisement Shelton, twice a semifinalist at majors, delivered serves at up to 143 mph (230 kph) and forehands at up to 116 mph (187 kph). Alcaraz, already a four-time Grand Slam champion, showed off various parts of his repertoire. It was tighter than the score might indicate: Shelton held three opportunities to own the opening set, leading in the tiebreaker at 6-4, 6-5 and 7-6. Take any of the subsequent points, and Shelton would own that set. Carlos Alcaraz will next face Tommy Paul at the French Open. AFP via Getty Images But Alcaraz — who meets No. 12 Tommy Paul of the U.S. in the quarterfinals Tuesday — saved the first with a service winner. Shelton netted a backhand on the next. And the last ended with Shelton smacking a backhand right at the body of Alcaraz, who was up at the net and contorted himself in order to chop a drop volley winner. Advertisement Alcaraz then converted his second set point, closing a 15-stroke exchange with a down-the-line forehand that drew a mistake from Shelton. The third set went to Shelton when Alcaraz put a forehand into the net, and the big-swinging American punched the air, then his chest, and screamed: 'Let's go, baby! Come on!' The fourth swung Alcaraz's way when he used a drop shot winner to set up a break point that he claimed for a 2-1 edge and, after a total of 3 hours, 19 minutes, he was able to finish off an 11th consecutive win at Roland-Garros.

'Whoever comes must knock him out of the position, not the other way round'

[Getty Images] We asked for your views on what Andy Robertson's future as a first-team regular at Liverpool is, amid links to Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez. Here are some of your comments: Robert: Robbo has been a fantastic player for the club but his recent mistakes have led to goals conceded and this would be a problem in what I expect to be a tougher season. Advertisement Callum: Robbo has been a great player for Liverpool, a real legend. Last season it was mistake after mistake at times and I think it's down to his game being all about high intensity and his age creeping up on him. His minutes need to be managed now, but he definitely still has a place in the squad. Jimmy: Looks like Robertson's time as the number one left-back at Liverpool could be coming to an end. Robertson might have to get used to being the back-up for Kerkez. AnfieldRed: Robbo is our left-back. Whoever comes in has to knock him out of the position and not the other way round. He's got nothing to prove. Always need a Scot in the team. Neil: Move him on given his contract status. Tsimikas is an able back-up.
