US Open: Botic van de Zandschulp boots out Carlos Alcaraz
Carlos Alcaraz, ranked No. 3 world, exited the US Open second round after a shock defeat by 74th-ranked Dutchman Botic van de Zandschulp. The Spaniard, burdened by a grueling summer schedule and his own unforced errors, couldn’t elevate his game, leading to his earliest Grand Slam exit in three years.
