Join Tanya Aldred for updates as Carlos Alcaraz looks to bounce back from his opening defeat by Casper Ruud when he faces the Russian No 8 seed.   14:29 Second set: Rublev 5-5, 3-6 Alcaraz* (*denotes next server) Scoreboard pressure?

Alcaraz faced Rublev twice on the professional tour. The Spanish champion won their first clash at the ATP Finals last year, while the Russian prevailed in their last match at the Mutua Madrid Open this season. It is worth mentioning that Carlos was not in top form in Madrid due to a forearm injury.

Carlos Alcaraz and Andrey Rublev almost certainly need to win on Day 4 of the ATP Finals to keep their hopes of qualifying for the semifinal alive. They face each other in the opening match before Alexander Zverev and Casper Ruud meet in the evening session.
