Alcaraz turns showman in Moutet mauling at Australian Open 

Carlos Alcaraz turned on the style as he raced into the Australian Open fourth round on Friday with a highlight-laden 6-2 6-4 6-1 clinic against France’s own trick-shot maestro Corentin Moutet.

The world number one was in peak form in his 100th Grand Slam match as he racked up 30 winners in just over two hours against the left-handed 32nd seed at Rod Laver Arena.

“It wasn’t easy, to be honest, when you play someone like Corentin. You don’t know what’s going to be next,” Alcaraz said.
