Carlos Alcaraz is about to play the first match of his season in Buenos Aires, where he will face Laslo Djere in his opening match. Carlito is used to being compared to Rafael Nadal for many reasons. One of them is being humble despite his success. In this video, the Spanish teenager is caught cleaning the court by himself in Buenos Aires before one of his training sessions without asking for help from anyone else.
Here is the video.
Situación que ilustra la modestia/naturalidad de @carlosalcaraz: llegó a la cancha para entrenarse pero recién la habían usado y aún no estaba preparada. No hubo problemas: Toni Cascales pasó la rastra y, Carlitos, sonriente, tomó la escoba y barrió los flejes. #ArgentinaOpen pic.twitter.com/zBEuow8Ytk
