There is hardly a rally where tennis youngster Carlos Alcaraz doesn’t start sprinting. The Spaniard is known for going after every ball. The 21-year-old now receives a tip from Roger Federer.
In an interview with the Australian broadcaster “Stan Sport”, the maestro spoke about Alcaraz. “He has to be careful that he doesn’t run after every ball because that’s not necessary,” says Federer. But he will learn that with age and time.

If the maestro has his way, Alcaraz is the top favorite at the Australian Open in the new year. “He will be perfectly physically prepared,” said the maestro.
“The hard court suits him by nature,” analyzes the 43-year-old. That’s why he believes the Spaniard has a good chance of winning. In January 2024, the 21-year-old was eliminated in the quarterfinals of the last Australian Open against Alexander Zverev.
Do you think that Carlos Alcaraz will one day become the new record Grand Slam winner?
