Carlos Alcaraz took his Roland Garros title defence all the way as he booked his spot in the final, but insisted it was "never great" to see eighth seed Lorenzo Musetti retire injured in the fourth set of their semi-final on June 6.

Alcaraz Eyes Repeat Title as Injured Musetti Quits Semi

PARIS -

The Spaniard led 4-6, 7-6 (7-3), 6-0, 2-0 after 2hr 25min of play under the roof on Court Philippe Chatrier when Musetti quit with a thigh issue.

"It is never great getting through winning the match like this," said Alcaraz.

"Lorenzo is a great player. He has done an incredible clay season. He's one of the few players who has achieved semi-finals. I wish him all the best and a quick recovery.

"The first two sets were really tough. I had chances to break his serve in the match and I couldn't make the most of it. He was playing great tennis. When I won the second set, there was relief. In the third set, I knew what I had to do in the beginning - pushing him to the limit and trying to be aggressive.

"I was more calm and I could see this more clearly and I could play great tennis."
