Alcaraz fires Spain into Davis Cup quarters, Italy down Sweden
Alcaraz, who reached the top of the rankings on the back of his triumph at the US Open, survived a tight second set to topple Kwon 6-4 7-6(1) after Roberto Bautista Agut had given Spain the lead by dispatching Hong Seong-chan 6-1 6-3.
"Davis Cup is different. You are playing with your team, represent your country. You don't play just for yourself. You're playing for everyone in Spain, you know," Alcaraz, who converted all three of his break points, told reporters.
"It is a different atmosphere, different air you breathe, totally different from the other tournaments."
