“The ups and downs he suffers on the court are one of his faults”
“The year you win a Grand Slam is always a great year. If you've won two… that's impressive. It is always possible to improve, for example off the court or by practicing certain aspects. Carlos is very aware of the things he needs to improve every year. I like the way he approaches the pre-season, I see him very focused on the things he wants to improve or on the things that haven't worked well this year. We are looking for a player with a '10' in almost all areas. Carlos has very high numbers in some areas and lower numbers in others. We need to improve his skills and fill his gaps. It is obvious that the ups and downs he suffers on the court is one of his faults, but that often depends on his freshness or his motivation.” Alcaraz will start its season directly atAustralian Openits main objective in 2025.
