Carlos Alcaraz’s coach Juan Carlos Ferrero has High Hopes for the Spanish sensation to win his first French Open. According to Juon Carlos it’s Carlitos the French Open favourite, not Novak Djokovic and Holger Rune.
He commented: “Carlos has played better than anyone during the clay season, but you have to do that every day at every tournament, as I tell him. We saw that in Rome; you have an average day, your opponent plays well and you lose. Everything points to Carlos as the favorite, we’ve heard it many times and we know that.”
