href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/carlos-alcaraz\">Alcaraz<\/a> suffered a surprise 6-3, 5-7, 6-4 defeat to world No 36 Sebastian Korda in the third round in Miami on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>The world No 1 was chasing his second title at the Miami Open \u2014 where he won his maiden ATP Masters 1000 crown in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>The Spanish star was also upset at the 2025 Miami Open, when he was stunned by 55th-ranked David Goffin in his opening match.<\/p>\n<p>Alcaraz has won eight Masters 1000 titles, with his victories coming at six of the nine different tournaments at this category of event.<\/p>\n<p>Mouratoglou \u2014 who has coached a host of tennis stars including Serena Williams \u2014 reacted to Alcaraz\u2019s defeat to Korda in a video on his Instagram account.<\/p>\n<p>In the caption, Mouratoglou wrote:\u00a0\u201cDuring his match against Fonseca, I had a feeling. Carlos Alcaraz didn\u2019t seem as engaged as usual in this Masters 1000. The next day, he lost to Korda.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Miami Open News<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/carlos-alcaraz-shares-message-social-media-after-shock-miami-open-exit\"><strong>Carlos Alcaraz shares 23-word message on social media after shock Miami Open exit<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/miami-open-carlos-alcaraz-rival-questions-roger-federer-comments\"><strong>Miami Open: Carlos Alcaraz rival questions Spaniard\u2019s \u2018Roger Federer\u2019 comments after recent meetings<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Want more from Tennis365?

That\u2019s really a feeling that I have.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI also feel that that will be the danger for him in the next years. And a lot of people say that, \u2018Oh! This year, in Roland Garros or Wimbledon or US Open \u2014 he doesn\u2019t play well in the first rounds.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah, he doesn\u2019t play well because he\u2019s bored! He has so much margin, when the match is too easy, he\u2019s losing his focus because deep inside he knows he can break back anytime.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, maybe it\u2019s not conscious, he doesn\u2019t think, \u2018Oh, I don\u2019t care!\u2019 But he\u2019s accepting to be broken, accepting to lose his focus. So that\u2019s a danger for him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alcaraz is next set to compete at the Monte Carlo Masters, where he is the reigning champion.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ NEXT: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/alcarazs-blunt-comments-to-his-team-and-telling-pressure-admission-as-sinner-sends-world-no-1-message\">Alcaraz\u2019s blunt comments to his team and telling \u2018pressure\u2019 admission as Sinner sends world No 1 message<\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Miami Open: \u2018Carlos Alcaraz is bored and not that interested in Masters 1000 tournaments\u2019 Ewan West 24 Mar 2026 10:30 AM Carlos Alcaraz with Patrick Mouratoglou inset Leading coach Patrick Mouratoglou has claimed Carlos Alcaraz is \u201cbored\u201d and \u201cnot that interested\u201d in Masters 1000 events after his early exit at the 2026 Miami Open.
