Masters 1000 tournament in Miami last month.<\/p>\n<p>Early in the second set of the match, a frustrated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/carlos-alcaraz\">Alcaraz<\/a> directed an outburst towards his coaching box, and his words were picked up by courtside microphones.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can\u2019t take it anymore, I want to go home now, man. I can\u2019t take it anymore, I can\u2019t take it anymore, I can\u2019t take it anymore,\u201d Alcaraz declared.<\/p>\n<p>Ahead of his appearance at the 2026 Monte Carlo Masters, Alcaraz addressed saying that he wanted to go home during his defeat to Korda.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cObviously, there are things I regret saying during the match, and that\u2019s one of them,\u201d the seven-time Grand Slam winner told Spanish media.<\/p>\n<h2>ATP Tour News<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/juan-carlos-ferrero-what-carlos-alcaraz-needs-to-do-become-goat\"><strong>Juan Carlos Ferrero tells Carlos Alcaraz what he \u2018needs to do\u2019 to become the GOAT<\/strong> <\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/carlos-alcaraz-speaks-out-privacy-cameras-monte-carlo-masters\"><strong>Carlos Alcaraz speaks out about player privacy as he issues \u2018too much\u2019 criticism<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Want more from Tennis365?

He\u2019s 22, and you have to make him understand that these kinds of comments have a lot of impact, especially outside the team. Internally, we knew how we arrived in Miami and what the situation was.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe has to try to control those impulses that he has: he has always had them, and less and less each time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe has to control them, especially for the opponent, both the player and the opposing team, not to show those weaknesses in certain moments.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut beyond that, it\u2019s a way of expressing himself and releasing some of the tension and fatigue that builds up. There\u2019s no need to give it more importance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ NEXT: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/stefanos-tsitsipas-disastrous-monte-carlo-masters-loss\">Stefanos Tsitsipas needs \u2018serious soul-searching\u2019 after \u2018disastrous\u2019 Monte Carlo Masters display<\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End --><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Carlos Alcaraz reveals what he \u2018regrets\u2019 saying ahead of Monte Carlo Masters title defence Ewan West 07 Apr 2026 12:45 PM A frustrated Carlos Alcaraz Carlos Alcaraz has admitted he regrets some of the comments he made to his team during his shock loss at the 2026 Miami Open.
