Looking back on Carlos Alcaraz's 2024 season in the last episode of his podcast, Andy Roddick felt that the Spaniard, despite his two Grand Slam titles won at Roland‐Garros and Wimbledon, had really lacked consistency compared to his great rival. , Jannik Sinner.
“There's something a little weird because he's a global talent who won two Grand Slams to take his total to four at the age of 21, as well as Masters 1000s and all that kind of stuff . But we forget that he did not win a single tournament between Wimbledon 2023 and Indian Wells 2024, then he missed the entire season on clay and then he lost against Botic van de Zandschulp at the US Open. He then beat Sinner in Asia and then lost a few tournaments in somewhat bizarre fashion at the end of the year. What went well in 2024? I have won major tournaments! I won my second title at Wimbledon. And what are the areas in which we need to improve? Being healthy and doing it all the time and winning 70+ games like Jannik Sinner did this year. »
