Carlos Alcaraz achieved a victory against the world number 2, Jannik Sinner, with 7-5, 7-6 (6) in a demonstration match held at the Incheon Inspire Arena in Seoul, where the audience was enthusiastic. The match, focused on entertainment, included unique moments, such as Sinner leaving the court to make room for a child from the stands.
