Seb called a shocks the tennis world with an exceptional performance in Miami as he knocks

out the world number one Carlos Alcaraz in three sets.

This is the post-match reaction.

Let's go through it.

That's right.

My word, what an upset this one is, and Seb called a, we know he's good, but did we

know he was this good?

I have to say for one, I didn't see this coming.

Let me know if you did in the comments.

What performance from Sebastian Corder, 6'3", 5'7", 6'4", and it could have been even

more convincing.

That's the crazy thing about this.

He threw away the second set while serving out for it at 5'4", and yeah, he lost three

games in a row.

He got broken again to even lose the second set, 7'5", but to be able to go through that

mental fragility and then come back and win the match, where it's just amazing, an absolute

masterclass they say here, enormous serving, all out aggression from the baseline, and

this is Carlos's worst loss by ranking since Miami last year, when he lost the David

Goffan, remember, first ever win for Corder over a world number one, third Miami round

of 16 appearance, 11th, top 10 win, one of America's greatest talents, no exaggeration,

he has it all, and today he showed it, he really did, it was an exceptional performance,

you have to be at your best to beat someone like Carlos Alcalaz, and it's good to see

Seb Corder's coming back to a bit of form, obviously we've seen him win a tournament this

year, already Del Ray Beach was the tournament he won, and he did look really good there.

That was a sign of things to calm I feel, and when he's injury free, he is someone to

be feared on the tour, he has had his list of injuries, I mean take a look at this, he's

not pretty reading, you see here he had the back injury which has been the latest thing

which he's been suffering with, he's had some a week off this year, he's had a month off

last year, he had, well yeah another week off at the beginning of last year, elbow injury

before that, another injury in 2024 as well, it doesn't specify which, we had an ankle injury

in 2023, wrist injury as well, so in 2023, lower back injury in 2023, shin injury in 2022,

and a back injury there in 2021, so the list of injuries for such a great talent on the tour,

it's very sad to see, but when he's playing and he's not injured, he produces fantastic tennis,

and yeah knocking out alkalis is just unbelievable, this is great that you get some stats come out,

and it says that Seb Corder defeats an alkalis, he becomes the second quarter to beat a current ATP

world number one, after his father, Peter Corder or Petta, he's stunned Pete Sampress at the 1997

US Open, there you go, there's a little headline there, picture Sampress not looking impressed,

and they're showing that when he did win, he celebrated in the same way, look at that,

it's got the racket on top of his head, hands on his head, pretty much the same type of feeling,

but it must just be just joy, just to have this type of feeling after all the injuries,

to know that you've got the level in there, and to finally produce it on the big stage,

not many people can defeat Carlos Alcalaz, especially in Miami, but he's just done it, and he's done

it from what was a really difficult position, after losing the second set, you'd think Alcalaz would

go and run away with it, but he kept true to himself, he kept serving well, and he managed to get

a break in the third set, it was really tough, there were a lot of juices, very, very close

third set, but he just edged it, and the serving was the key element, he looked really strong

on his first serve in this entire match, it just fell down at the end of that second set,

just think the nerves got in and got the better of him, but you can see here, performance rating,

they gave Carlos a higher performance rating of 8.7, he only got 8.4 apparently,

and the quality apparently was higher for Carlos, but he just goes to show, it's fine margins in tennis,

and his serve quality was the thing that got him through in the end, 8.8 to Carlos is 7.5,

it's always going to be close, and you're going to have to do a lot to defeat someone like Alcalaz

on this surface, and it proved, Alcalaz maybe a little bit below par, some people were saying,

but I think you can only really give Coda the credit, I don't think we can look too much into

Alcalaz's performance, he raised his level in the second set to snatch the set, and in the third

set it just wasn't enough, he got broken again, and Coda was able to hold his nerve, really should

have been a straight set's win for Seb Coda, but for him, I would say bottling it a bit at the end

of that second, they're calling him giant slayer here as he took down the number one with two great

set scores for his shot quality, and 9.4 on the forehand, it was very, very solid today, and 8.8

on the serve, yeah, it was brilliant, this is what he had to say afterwards, they asked him how it felt,

he said it feels great, I took the scenic route, that's for sure, a little more stress than I would

want, but I'm happy with how I played and stayed with it, kept believing, got myself in some

nasty situations, just kept going, kept believing, played really well at the end, and they said,

you and your team have talked about the idea of staying within yourself and your game,

especially at that new found aggression, how did you do it? He said a lot of soul searching,

that's for sure, I've gone through a lot of things, played a lot of great players, haven't been

able to get it done, but I felt always when I was playing these top players that I would start

spraying the ball, and try to do a bit too much than I need to, with Ryan, we sat down, our gold

day was to play average, just to have an average ball, don't do too much with it, that's when you

get in trouble, that's kind of what he's searching for is you start spraying and you get yourself in

trouble against him, and they said, if that's average, what's your top level then? He said, I mean

the ball speed, not the way I played, I was aggressive as possible, I served great the whole match,

and that's what you need to do to beat a player like him, he's unbelievable in every aspect of the

game, movement, volleys, forehand, backhand, there's nothing he can't do, I had to be aggressive,

I had to take the ball out of his hand and take the point in my favour, very well said, those are

the things you have to do, because if you don't, you're on the wrong side of a beating,

and he found that out in the second set, he didn't want to feel it again in the third,

and he just did great, he realised his potential out there on the court today, and it was great to see,

and number five is the number, he's the fifth American to defeat an ATP world number one out

of the Miami Open, and the first born in Florida since the tournament's inception in 1985,

alligator it says there, and there's the other players who have also done it, Rodic versus Federer

2008, Agassi versus Sampress in 1995, Chang versus Kuria 1992, Wheaton had defeating Edberg in 91,

yeah, and he becomes the lowest ranked player to defeat Alcholaz since Goffan in Miami last year,

some bits about Carlos Alcholaz, he has been eliminated in the round of 32, a Masters 1000,

as the current world number one, for the second time it happened in Paris in 2025,

and the Masters considering the ATP number one players eliminated in the round 32 or early,

Roger Federer experienced it 10 times, so there's a list of some of the other players,

got Sampress with seven, Djokovic with six, Agassi with four, Hewitt with four,

Gustavo Kuerten with three, Andy Murray with two, Daniel Medvedev with two, Thomas Muster with two,

no Alcholaz with two, and we've got Rios Safin Nadal and Edberg all there with one, and yeah,

it should be noted that obviously the players who stay at world number one,

longest, they're probably going to have more of them, but that's pretty much it, I mean,

crazy things have happened, this has got to be up there, who is now a sinner now, the big

favorite to go on and win the whole entire tournament in Miami, or do you give Seb Corden now a

chance to go all the way and potentially enter his name into the mix as well, because wouldn't it

be nice if there are a few other players on tour who start getting into the conversation, we've

said it in tournaments just gone, and we could be saying it in tournaments yet to come,

can't wait to see what happens for the rest of Miami, so tell me your thoughts about this result
