CARLOS ALCARAZ has revealed he's been learning to master his grass game by studying videos of Andy Murray.
The top seed saw off Jiri Lehecka 6-2 6-3 yesterday - and the Spaniard, 20, is expected to win today's quarter-final against qualifier Grigor Dimitov just as easily.
Alcaraz insisted his increasing comfort on grass is down to watching the Scot and now-retired Swiss ace Roger Federer.
He said: "I mean, I watch some videos about my opponents first and then I have a lot of time to watch videos, to learn from the best players in the world.
"Right now I want to look up to the best players on grass and movers - Roger and Andy for me are the best players that are moving great on grass.
