The world number two will try to secure his maiden title of 2023 in his first tournament since last year’s Rolex Paris Masters when he meets Briton Cameron Norrie in the final on Sunday.
“It’s a really special moment for me,” Alcaraz said. “I was a little bit down after the injury, so I had to recover in those four months the confidence and the rhythm.
“Coming back for my first tournament of 2023 and making the final is so special for me.”
The 19-year-old Alcaraz leads Norrie their ATP Head2Head series 3-1, but the Briton claimed their most recent meeting last year in Cincinnati.
“I played a couple of times against him. [He is] a really, really tough player,” Alcaraz said.
“I know that I have to give everything I have in the final. I’m going to say it’s going to be a really tough final, but at the same time a beautiful one.”
