In the final at Queen’s Club on Sunday, Carlos Alcaraz proved his dominance once again by defeating Jiri Lehecka, solidifying himself as a top contender for Wimbledon. The top-seeded Spaniard secured a hard-fought victory with a 7-5, 6-7 (5), 6-2 win, marking his second triumph on the grass courts of west London since his debut in 2023. This win extended Alcaraz’s winning streak to 18 matches, with recent successes in Rome and at the French Open.
Despite a strong performance from Lehecka, who had eliminated local hopeful Jack Draper in the previous round, Alcaraz’s impeccable play ensured he did not face a single break point. With an impressive display of serves and ground strokes, Alcaraz sealed his 21st career title and second victory at Queen’s, showcasing his prowess ahead of Wimbledon, which commences on June 30.
