Carlos Alcaraz is in Turin competing in the ATP Finals that will take place throughout this week. In fact, he makes his debut this Monday against the Norwegian Casper Ruud and will seek to win the first Masters Cup of his career. Afterwards, the Murcian will take a direct plane to Malaga to face the Davis Cup with Spain, which will be held in the Andalusian city from November 19 to 24 and which will mark Rafa Nadal's retirement from professional Tennis.
From Italy, the Spaniard has attended the magazine VOGUE in a joint interview with the rest of the ATP Finals participants. Along with him, Sinner, Medvedev, Ruud, De MIñaur, Fritz, Zverev and Rublev have opened up in advance of the last major tournament of the season. Asked about his best moment of all of 2024, Carlitos seems to have it quite clear: “Roland Garros. In the months before the tournament I was injured and I couldn't train as much as I wanted, so I arrived at Roland Garros without expectations and ended up winning it (with matches really good). It's a real highlight,” says the Murcian.
Furthermore, regarding the best trip (and best tournament) he has played this season, Alcaraz looks to the United States and talks about Indian Wells, where he won the title after defeating Daniil Medvedev in the final 7-6 and 6-1: “I had a very good team, very good people, we played some golf and laughed a lot.” Regarding the month that he will be away from the courts, the Spaniard assures that he will play some exhibition matches and that he will take vacations with his friends, but without saying where he will go.
Finally, Carlitos has also responded to the question of who has been the person who has influenced him the most in 2024 away from the tennis courts: “That is a difficult question, but I will choose Topuria. He is a person who inspired me. a lot,” he acknowledges VOGUE.
