Yep.
I watched part of it. It seemed to be to be either one of two things, or perhaps a combination.
1) At the same time that tour players are getting used to his game, he
is losing both confidence and focus. I remembered that first year that
Agassi was on the tour and he was a happy, joyous kid.--hit hit out on everything, and all of it went in, it seemed like. Then after a couple
of years all the joy was apparently gone. I don't think it's quite as
bad as with Agassi, but maybe Alcaraz is into that same post-kid phase.
2). Bad haircut. It's as if he got Lendl's barber to come out of
retirement.

You won two slams and you are just a 20 years old young man, you
don't know why you are there playing these small tournaments
against these unknown guys.
You want more excitement, maybe playing against the best like
Novak, or playing a slam will get you motivated again
:)

This was a week ago and he played today.
Plantar fasciitis doesn't heal in a week, I have been having it
