    Carlos has goals and he work hard for it, then his talent, perseverance and determination , he got his wish and still continue growing in every level. He’s with his team who’s humble and behind him thru and thru. Every level may he win or lose, he never give up. I guess he believed and Juan Carlos give him the talk about you are S good as your last performance, so there’s always something new in his game.

      Djokovic is almost unbeatable on grass and Medvedev/Zverev will be a force on hard courts in the next 5-6 years. I think Alcaraz will be top-8 next year and could even be top-3 by 2023, but winning a slam will be hard against those guys. Let's see how far he goes in RG next year, I thin that's his best chance.

    He has such a luminous, cute smile. I don't understand why some people criticize his looks or mocks his pimples. He is still a teen now, in 2-3 years from now he will look very handsome.
    I'm still not on the "Alcaraz will be number #1 next year and win many slams" bandwagon, though. Give this guy some time. Tennis is a difficult sport. There are too many factors to handle (the crowd is one of them, as he saw in Paris). Plus, Djokovic/Nadal aren't retired yet and Medvedev/Zverev are gonna be very very hard to beat on fast hard courts in the next 5-6 years.
    I think he will be top-8 next year but for top-3 and #1 and winning slams, you'll have to wait a few more years.
