About Carlos Alcaraz
Tennis star Carlos Alcaraz has rapidly become one of the sport’s most dominant and exciting players. Born in 2003 in Murcia, Spain he turned pro at just 15 and has since trained under former world No. 1 Juan Carlos Ferrero. Known for his electric speed, fearless shot-making, and mental toughness, Alcaraz broke onto the global stage with his first Grand Slam win at the 2022 US Open, becoming the youngest World #1 in ATP history. He has since captured titles at Wimbledon (2023, 2024) and the French Open (2024, 2025), boasting a flawless 5–1 record in Grand Slam finals. Alcaraz is also the youngest man to win a Grand Slam on all three surfaces and the first to defeat both Nadal and Djokovic at the same clay event, doing so in back-to-back matches in Madrid 2022. With over 20 ATP titles, he’s already built a résumé that rivals the greats. Alcaraz is widely regarded as the future of men’s tennis, forging a legacy uniquely his own. Off the court, Alcaraz launched the Carlos Alcaraz Garfia Foundation which aims to improve the lives of children in need through initiatives supporting social inclusion, improved health, and raising awareness around the problems faced by the most vulnerable children.
