Carlos Alcaraz is a very ambitious player and is not satisfied with the titles he has won up to this point of his career. The young Spanish champion has shown that he has the right skills to be able to make history in this sport and become one of the best ever, but he has also understood that he must continue to work to solve his weaknesses.

Consistency throughout the year is certainly one of Carlitos' main flaws at the moment, considering that he is almost 5000 points away from his great rival Jannik Sinner in the ATP ranking despite winning two Major titles in the same season. The 21-year-old from Murcia became the youngest ever to win the French Open and Wimbledon Championships in the same year, as well as winning the Indian Wells Masters 1000 for the second time in a row.
Carlos Alcarazs 2024 season
The 4-time Grand Slam champion will try to be more consistent this season and the help of a top coach like Samuel Lopez can be very useful in the most delicate moments. The current world number 3 will make his debut directly at the Australian Open, where he hopes to win the last Grand Slam title he is still missing.
On the latest edition of his podcast, former World No.1 Andy Roddick discussed Alcarazs results in 2024: Its kind of weird because he is this all world talent who won two majors to bring his tally to four by the time he is 21, along with 1000s and all this other stuff.

But we forget that he didnt win a tournament between Wimbledon and Indian Wells, and then he missed the entire clay court season and then he lost to Botic van de Zandschulp at the US Open. He then beat Sinner over in Asia and then loses a couple of weird ones at the end of the world.
The American also added: What went right in 2024? I won majors! I won my second Wimbledon title and whats the areas of improvement?
Being healthy and doing it all the time and winning 70 plus matches like Sinner did this year.
He is a joy to watch. Expectations couldnt be more outsized. He is one of the biggest global superstars, not just in tennis, but in anything. Everyone wants to be around him.
