Carlos Alcaraz
Carlos Alcaraz Garfia (born 5 May 2003) is a Spanish professional tennis player. He is currently ranked as the world No. 1 in men's singles by the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP), and finished as the year-end No. 1 in 2022. Alcaraz has won 24 ATP Tour singles titles, including six majors: two each at the French Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open.
Alcaraz began his professional career in 2018 at age 14. He broke into the top 100 of the rankings in May 2021, and ended that year ranked No. 32 after reaching the US Open quarterfinals. In 2022, Alcaraz won his first major title at the US Open, becoming the youngest man and the first male teenager in the Open Era to reach the world No. 1 singles ranking, at 19 years, 4 months and 7 days old. After finishing the year as the youngest year-end No. 1 in ATP rankings history, he was named the Laureus World Breakthrough of the Year for his performance that season.
In 2023, Alcaraz claimed his second major title at Wimbledon, defeating seven-time champion Novak Djokovic in the final. In 2024, he won the French Open and Wimbledon, followed by a silver medal at the Paris Olympics. He claimed his fifth and sixth major titles in 2025, defeating Jannik Sinner in the final of the French Open as well as the US Open.
Carlos Alcaraz Garfia was born on 5 May 2003, in El Palmar, Murcia, Spain, to parents Carlos Alcaraz González and Virginia Garfia Escandón. Alcaraz has one older brother, Álvaro, and two younger brothers, Sergio and Jaime.
Alcaraz started playing tennis at the age of four at the Real Sociedad Club de Campo de Murcia, where his father was a tennis coach and club administrator. His mother worked as a sales assistant at IKEA. Alcaraz's father had played tennis but stopped as a teenager as he could not afford to continue.
Alcaraz was discovered as an eleven-year old by Albert Molina, who convinced IMG to sign him and eventually introduced him to future coach Juan Carlos Ferrero.
Alcaraz is frequently accompanied to tournaments by his father and by his brother Álvaro, who works as his hitting partner. During the tennis off-season, he splits his time between his parents' home in Murcia and his training centre in nearby Villena. His friends and family call him "Carlitos" or "Charly".
In February 2018, aged 14, Alcaraz played his first professional tennis event as a qualifier at the Spain F5 ITF Futures in Murcia. He knocked out second seed and world No. 292 Federico Gaio in the first round, and proceeded to reach the quarterfinals. He collected his first two ATP points from this tournament, and entered the rankings as world No. 1414 on 26 February 2018.
