It is often said that Carlos Alcaraz is a sort of hybrid of Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, and Roger Federer. During a recent interview with Eurosport, Carlos Alcaraz coach Juan Carlos Ferrero confirmed that they have watched a lot of videos of some tennis legends such as Novak Djokovic, Andy Murray, and Roger Federer.
Ferrero revealed: “I think he takes things on board very quickly, and we’ve also seen a lot of videos of players that move very quickly here. So, we copied a little of Murray, Roger and Novak, and he tries to copy a little bit the same. In the end, it wasn’t easy, but we did it.”
