NICE, France — Top-ranked Carlos Alcaraz has won his first match since clinching a dramatic Wimbledon final by rallying to beat David Goffin of Belgium 4-6, 6-4, 10-8 in the Hopman Cup in Nice.

The exhibition event is at the Nice Lawn Club in southern France with mixed teams representing their nation in singles and doubles.
