Carlos Alcaraz reacts to his defeat to Novak Djokovic in the men's singles tennis final at the Paris Games. "I think I put more pressure on myself because I was playing for Spain, for the Spaniards," Alcaraz said."I felt that I let the Spanish people down by not winning the gold."
"It was a different type of pressure," Alcaraz said."Everyone in Spain wanted me to win the gold, and I wanted to win the gold as well.""In those difficult moments I usually raise my level, but I wasn't able to do that today," Alcaraz said."Probably I felt the pressure in those situations. You play four Grand Slams every year, the Olympics is only once every four years.
