“I mean, obviously it’s surface-based,not every surface allows you just to power through. Maybe against Alcaraz, sometimes you have to outmanoeuvre him, which is obviously super difficult.
“What I did see is just what he’s able to cover, and with the speed that he has, you have to go in with a mindset that you need to win the point twice.
“That can really throw some question marks, Even if you’re hitting an easy forehand that’s normally a winner.
“I would obviously play very aggressive against him on an indoor court like this, like Taylor [Fritz] did—keep coming at him, make him feel uncomfortable, mix it up, come in some,’’ Federer stated.
