Carlos Alcaraz, a brilliant start in 2026
The Spanish tennis player has given very little chance to his rivals at the Australian Open taking victory in every match they have faced him. In fact, the only one who put him in trouble was the German giant Alexander Zverev, in a match where Alcaraz had some physical problems from the third set. However, his intensity and determination balanced the scales in his favor.
This internal ambition has led him to overcome the doubts generated since he announced, a few weeks ago, that he was not going to continue under the orders of his previous coach, Juan Carlos Ferrero, as has happened in recent years. From minute one in this Australian Open, the Murcian tennis player has known how to avoid the great abilities of his opponents, especially against the aforementioned Zverev and also against the Australian De Miñaur, two players who sell their defeats very dearly.
