Carlos Alcaraz - A new generation of tennis legends

The 2025 US Open championship confirms that Alcaraz has gone beyond the framework of a tennis player - he has become a new world icon, both dominating the court and conquering the global market.

The first steps

Carlos Alcaraz Garfia (born 5 May 2003) is a Spanish tennis player. Alcaraz has won 22 ATP Tour singles titles, including 6 Grand Slam tournaments: the 2022 US Open, the 2023 Wimbledon , the 2024 French Open, the 2024 Wimbledon, the 2025 French Open, the 2025 US Open along with eight Masters 1000 titles. With his U.S. Open title in September 2022, Alcaraz became the youngest male tennis player to be ranked No. 1 in the world in history, at just 19 years, 4 months and 6 days. Born and raised in El Palmar , a small town in Spain, Alcaraz soon showed a talent for the felt ball, mentored by his father, Carlos Alcaraz González, a former professional tennis player. His early-blooming talent has been clearly demonstrated from the first steps on the professional field.

At the age of 16, Alcaraz made his debut in the ATP main round at the 2020 Rio Open. Despite his inexperience, he put in a dramatic performance, defeating compatriot Albert Ramos Viñolas in a match that lasted 3 hours and 36 minutes, a memorable milestone that confirmed the bravery of a young tennis player. A year later, at the age of 17, Alcaraz continued to impress at the 2021 Australian Open, qualifying to become the youngest player in the tournament in men's singles. The first Grand Slam win over Botic van de Zandschulp ushered in a new era, signaling the arrival of a global star. At the end of 2021, he rose to the top 100 of the ATP and finished the year in the top 35, after reaching the quarterfinals of the US Open, an extremely impressive achievement for a teenage tennis player.

Career development and core footprint

2022 is a pivotal year where Alcaraz turns potential into reality and reaches dazzling heights. In March of the same year, he won his first ATP Masters 1000 title in Miami at the age of 18, an unbelievable feat. This title not only affirms the ability to compete at the highest level but also is a challenge to big names. However, the peak of Alcaraz's career must be mentioned the 2022 US Open championship. With his energetic fighting style, thunderous forehands and relentless fighting spirit, he subdued all opponents to be crowned the first Grand Slam champion. This victory sent Alcaraz into the history of world tennis, as he became the youngest male tennis player to be ranked No. 1 in the world, and also the youngest person to finish the year in the top position. This achievement is a strong affirmation that he is not only a young talent but also a new force in world tennis.

After an explosive 2022 season, Alcaraz enters 2023 as the most sought-after tennis player. The pressure of a champion and world number one is not small, but he proved his mettle at Wimbledon. In the legendary final, Alcaraz faced Novak Djokovic, the greatest tennis player of all time. The tense match lasting 5 sets ended with the victory belonging to Alcaraz, a feat that is symbolic of the generational transition. He not only won the title but also broke the dominance of the "Big 3" on the pitch, an unforgettable mark.

Grand Slam dominance and the latest achievements

Continuing to extend the streak of success, in 2024, Alcaraz has shown his dominance with convincing victories at Roland Garros and Wimbledon. The French Open championship helped him complete a collection of Grand Slam titles on different courts, a major milestone in his career. Soon after, he went on to successfully defend his title at Wimbledon, cementing his status as one of the world's top tennis players with excellent adaptability and competition on all courts. Another highlight in 2024 is his silver medal win at the Paris Olympics, a proud achievement and demonstrating his commitment to the colors of his homeland's flag.

2025 is the year that Alcaraz establishes its status as an unshakable symbol. He won two more Grand Slams – Roland Garros and the US Open. It is worth noting that in both of these finals, he overcame his rival Jannik Sinner, one of the most formidable opponents of his generation. These matches were not only the pinnacle rivalry but also the beginning of one of the most intriguing rivalries in modern tennis history. The victory at the 2025 US Open not only confirmed Alcaraz's dominance on the court, but also marked his transformation from an excellent tennis player to a global icon, conquering not only the audience but also the commercial market.

Off-field contributions and personal interests

Carlos Alcaraz's greatness is not only shown through his shots or trophies but also through meaningful activities off the field. In April 2024, he founded the Carlos Alcaraz Garfia Foundation, with the noble mission of supporting disadvantaged children in his hometown of El Palmar. The foundation was quickly up and running, providing buses to volunteers for relief after the floods in Valencia and holding fundraising auctions. In December of the same year, Alcaraz went on to initiate the exhibition "Los Pies en la Tierra" in Murcia, an event to demonstrate his strong commitment to creating equal opportunities for children.
