Carlos Alcaraz, the world No. 3, has revealed his plan to get a kangaroo tattoo if he wins the Australian Open title. The Spaniard, who is aiming to complete a career Grand Slam, shared his idea in a post-match interview after his victory over Nuno Borges in the third round. Alcaraz already has tattoos commemorating his previous Grand Slam wins, including the date of his US Open victory, the Eiffel Tower for his French Open win, and a strawberry for his Wimbledon titles.

Alcaraz, who is just 21 years old, is determined to lift the trophy at Melbourne Park, the only major title that has eluded him so far. He expressed his excitement about the possibility of adding a kangaroo tattoo to his collection, symbolizing his achievement at the Australian Open. The kangaroo, being the national animal of Australia, would be a fitting tribute to his success in the tournament.

As Alcaraz continues his journey in the Australian Open, fans eagerly await to see if he can achieve his goal and add another unique tattoo to his collection. His dedication and passion for the sport have made him a favorite among tennis enthusiasts worldwide.
