The season of Carlos Alcaraz ended sooner than anticipated. The Spanish team’s run in Malaga ended on Day 1 against the Netherlands, despite the young Spanish champion’s desire to help Spain win the Davis Cup Finals. All of the Spanish team members were extremely disappointed because Rafael Nadal’s career came to an end at the Davis Cup Finals.

Alcaraz’s next objective is to improve his consistency throughout the season in order to move closer to Jannik Sinner’s top spot in the ATP rankings. In the final tournaments of the season, Carlos’ ups and downs were the key factor that allowed Sascha Zverev to overtake him for second place.

In the off-season, the four-time Grand Slam champion made the decision to work out with a young athlete. Jack Draper, who has had the best season of his young career, will assist Alcaraz in some of his preparation.

The British player made it to his first Grand Slam semifinal at the US Open after defeating Carlitos at Queen’s this year.
