Spanish tennis player Carlos Alcaraz, a four-time Grand Slam champion, revealed the phrase from his coach Samuel Lopez that helped him win the Monte Carlo Masters.
`This was the first clay tournament of the season. I knew it would be difficult, and it was important to stay positive. It seems this is the phrase my coach Samuel repeated most often this week: stay strong and positive. Perhaps this was the key to such a wonderful week. You need to face difficulties head-on, not avoid them. I think this influenced me because in matches you need to look problems in the eye, not worry and not be afraid. When you realize the difficulties, accept them, and face them head-on, everything works out. I think it was a great week because we successfully overcame all the challenging moments,` Alcaraz said at a press conference.
