(UPDATE) CINCINNATI — Carlos Alcaraz let loose his frustrations with a violent racquet smash in a 4-6, 7-6 (7/5), 6-4 defeat on Friday (Saturday in Manila) at the ATP and WTA Cincinnati Open that he called the 'worst match' of his career.

The reigning Roland Garros and Wimbledon champion could not match the wily skills of 37-year-old French opponent Gael Monfils, two decades in the game and a threat to any young gun.
