Yearly summary
Early hard court season
Alcaraz began his 2024 campaign at Australian Open, where he recorded a straight-set victory against Frenchman Richard Gasquet[5] before defeating Italian Lorenzo Sonego in four sets in the first and second round, respectively.[6] His third round opponent, Chinese wild card Shang Juncheng, retired at the start of the third set therefore making it Alcaraz's most successful run at the Australian Open.[7] He cruised into the quarterfinals after beating Miomir Kecmanović in straight sets.[8] When he won his fourth-round match at the age of 20 years and 262 days, Alcaraz became the fourth-youngest man in Open era history to reach all four major quarterfinals.[9] He lost in the quarterfinals to the sixth seeded, Alexander Zverev.[10]
Argentina and Brazil events
In February, Alcaraz entered 2024 Argentina Open as the defending champion and won his first two matches in straight sets[11] before losing to Chilean Nicolás Jarry in straight sets in the semifinals.[12] Alcaraz retired from the Rio Open the following week after two games due to a right ankle injury. He twisted his ankle in the first game after only two points.[13] He later announced a lateral sprain of his right ankle but said he'd miss just "a few days" and planned to play at Las Vegas and Indian Wells.[14]
Sunshine Masters tournaments
As defending champion at Indian Wells, Alcaraz came back into form defeating Matteo Arnaldi, Félix Auger-Aliassime, Fábián Marozsán, and Alexander Zverev to reach the semifinals, having only dropped one set in his opening match against Arnaldi.[15] He next faced Jannik Sinner for an eighth career meeting,[16] leveling the rivalry 4–4 by defeating him and therefore ending his 19 match win streak.[17] Alcaraz successfully defended his title by defeating Daniil Medvedev in the final, earning him his first title since Wimbledon 2023.[18]
