Born May 5, 2003, Alcaraz became just the second-youngest ATP world No. 1 in 2022, following in Pete Sampras’s footsteps 

With five majors already including three in a row (RG, Wimbledon ×2, US Open) he joins elite company at just 22 

In June 2025, he overturned a two set deficit and saved three championship points, winning in the longest Roland Garros final ever (5h29m) 

Fresh off winning his second Queen’s Club title, he's now the 5/4 Wimbledon favorite aiming for a third straight title  

First player to win ATP 500 titles on four surfaces, and clinched Monte‑Carlo and Italian Open 1000s, plus indoor and clay dominance 

Leading the Race to Turin by over 2,200 points, his consistency across clay, grass, and hard-court sets him up for another year-end crown  

Known for unrivaled speed, precise shot-making, and mental resilience—often outlasting top rivals like Djokovic and Sinner  

His “Sincaraz Era” rivalry with Jannik Sinner (Alcaraz leads 8-4) and fierce matches vs Djokovic are fueling tennis’s new golden age
