Carlos Alcaraz is about to start his grass campaign at the Queen’s Club, where he is seeded No. 1. During a recent press conference, Carlos Alcaraz acknowledged that he has not much experience on grass and, therefore, it will be difficult to stop Novak Djokovic from winning yet another Wimbledon title.

Carlitos revealed:  “Well I have always said that I think I can win any tournament I play. Obviously, on grass, it is a bit more complicated as I don’t have a lot of experience and in the matches I played, I struggled on it. And obviously, Djokovic, together with Federer, is one of the greatest players ever seen on a grass court. So, it’s already going to be complicated.”
