#carlosalcaraz
I'm Spanish so I understand all the conversations between Ferrero and Alcaraz and I have to say, they are 95% cheering, 5% real tennis tips. And most of them are pretty basic, like: "He's tired, move him side to side", or "be more agressive now, come on". What Ferrero brings to Alcaraz is basically psichological support, which is super important in tennis, by the way (ask Kyrgios or Rublev about it)
I’ll definitely be sure to ask Kyrgios or Rublev about it.
Efectivamente. Me quedo asombrada cuando se quejan de otros países por los "consejos" de Ferrero.
Solo son unas palabras de ánimo y miradas con gestos cómplices. No hay ni una táctica. Jaja
Carlos encuentra soluciones él solo. Es un guerrero.
@@hsr4102muy bien dicho maja, saludos desde Suiza y VAMOS Carlos, Rafa (dentro de poco veremos un chico llamado Martín Landaluce...) la Roja! Y tambien me encanta ver el baloncesto como balonmano y mucho mas. Aunque nací y sigo viviendo en el extranjero (Suiza) me siento muy orguioso ser español, aunque veo muchos problemas economicos en mi país - creo en soluciones, como el deporte español en general nos demuestra...
Agreed!
E
The people who write Carlos off after every loss, complain about his coaching (while failing to see others who get it) , complain about his grunting, and predict doom are haters and not the majority of tennis fans who appreciate excellence when they see it. I went to Queens to hopefully see him in the finals. Because Draper played insanely well Carlos was not there. I was chatting with people around me and not one person belittled Carlos because he lost to Draper. This is London and many of the tennis fans here wanted to see him win the trophy again. He is a generational talent period. I enjoy his exciting tennis so much and want to see him at the top for many years to come.
Well said!
I'm 56 and played/watched tennis for 46 years. Carlos is special. If he can avoid serious injury and continue to have passion for the game then I can see him winning 20+ majors.
I agree 100%… if he can stay healthy he will surpass all records
@@Gingerspicelife I believe Novak knows this so he's trying to picked up a few more majors before retirement.
@@mikek6478 I agree that's exactly what he's trying to do, but I somehow doubt that he will. With him getting older and Alcaraz and Sinner getting better with each GS tournament, Although I'd want to see Novak lift at least one more GS trophy, his goal of winning more GS titles with each successive tournamnet becomes less and less likely. And, although for a while, it seemed impossible for anyone to be able to exceed Novak's 24 GS record, with what Alcaraz is accomplishing and the way he's playing, (if he stays injury-free most of his career), it appears that he is the one that will be able to even reach the 30 GS mark. However, Sinner and other new players who will undoubtedly emerge on the tennis scene will also do their best to ensure that Carlos does not have an easy trip to new records.
@@theUroshman I agree with Novak getting older, but I believe he can win 1 or 2 more. As for Carlos, he's a problem and his opponents know it. Hitting lazy shots back or good shots (by making Carlos run), isn't good enough. To beat him, the opponent needs to serve really well, hit deep corner shots (to make him run) and mix up the game (hit long/short, lobs, spins, and angles). The opponent needs to play great and that's still not a guarantee they will still beat him.
Remember with in few months of injury operation, jokovich played, still great, in normal condition alcaraz cannot beat him so easily
And then he won the f*king Wimbledon again
Very insightful and accurate. It's still too soon to foresee how good he can get. As you mentioned RG was a proof that he can get titles without being spectacular, so there's potential for the future, when he won't be able to rely that much on his athleticism.
The partnership between Alcaraz amd Ferrero is gonna last long, at least according to what they both have spoken (10 more years according to Ferrero). So in that sense I don't think fans really care how much Juan Carlos influences his tennis as long as the kid perfomes well. The tennis IQ debate i think is a bit sterile... At the end the coach never gets to the court, and Ferrero was also coaching Zverev without him achieving a milestone of what Alcaraz has achieved...
The kid is good, I'm already impatient to see how long lasting this is gonna be. I'm also happy to see other contenders such as Sinner creating opposition.
You made a lot of interesting points. 👍🏻
With regards to the Tennis IQ, I alos think it is a bit of a "sterile Point" as you put it. My take on it i sthat he is indeed only 21 years old. Definitely still a youngster that is going to get a LOT of experience that will take his Tennis IQ through the roof. He is only getting started . . .
Alcaraz does not have a low tennis IQ what are you saying? He said most times he cannot hear what his coach is saying to him during a rally. For crying out loud he is 21 years old. Look at his achievements please back and forth analysis does not speak neutrality imo
Exactly, he can even do a break game if he sets his mind into it. So idk where that came from
Enjoyed this analysis. ❤️At age 21 what else a fan could ask for ❤ I am just happy there is a Carlitos on tour now who make tennis fun to watch.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Alcaraz's mental toughness is incredible. He comes through time and time again during the pressure situations. He believes mental is everything and he is correct. But he also has incredible physical attributes, all the shots in his arsenal, and an incredible coaching team. I am looking forward watching amass grand slams. I predict and hope he achieves 30 grand slam titles in his career with minimal injuries and health setbacks. Vamos!
Alcaraaz needs to handle his ups and downs. Especially the pressure after winning a slam. But im not worrying too much ngl
He literally won Roland Garros after being one set down both in the semis and in the final. I think he has the pressure/handling ups and downs part figured out by now.
I agree!
@@fmmveatsa8608 it's pretty obvious at this point, his mindset is good
It is just he needs time to prep for the grass. Look how little time he had vs Draper had. Games are so different btw Clay and grass. Agree that no one really worries
He's better in 5 set tennis than 3
1. I'm Spanish and Ferrero barely gives Carlos any real technical instructions, he's mostly cheering him up or looking like a calm presence. And players and coaches always had signals for the stuff they wanted to communicate anyway. He's not introvert Sinner, Carlos is a very, very sociable guy, and both are fine. But Carlos always talks a lot, he feeds from the energy from people around him. I find it totally normal that he interacts with his box during matches. In a nutshell, I think any noise about coaching during matches is totally overrated. 😒
2. I think Alcaraz has huge tennis IQ. Tennis players make hundreds of very quick decisions, he has an enormous arsenal of options, and I think he chooses well most times. Does he get carried away sometimes, showboats a little? Yes. But it makes him happy, and honestly the more he does it in matches, the better he gets at the impossible shots. And isn't it that made him a top winner, playing shots that most everyone else is now learning how to play/master like drop shots and approaches to the net and lobs etc? He saved us from serve bots and never ending baseline power hitting of the generation before him!! Let him do his thing! Having said that, I think what Ferrero meant when he said Carlos goes for too much sometimes and needs to stay at his top level mentally, is more Carlos staying more focused and having the patience to work the point before hitting a spectacular shot. Which, well, the guy is 21yo, impatience may well be his middle name. I can't imagine Ferrero trying to cut Alcaraz's wings at all, I'm convinced it's the opposite, in fact, because he had the chance to shape Carlos since he was a young teen and this is the result of his coaching: exuberance and showboating and all the magic still there in all its glory. 🔥🔥 Ferrero's interviews in Spanish are great, in case you haven't listened to one of them yet. As good as my English is, for example, I always tell people I am way more clever in my mother tongue. 🙂🙃
3. Alcaraz's main areas of improvemente imo: he's a slow starter (he tends to take a while to warm up in a match), and he sometimes takes a bit too long to get out of his concentration lapses. He's the opposite of Iga Swiatek, who's a fast starter and demolition focus all the time. Carlos is slow to get going, with many ups and downs. Maybe Carlos' mental coach should give Iga's a call. 😄
4. Re: Wimbledon 2024. Alcaraz is here to win, no doubt, and he'll give his best. He's a competitor. But I have a feeling his heart+mind is already half at the Olympics. He looks so relaxed after RG, like he truly understood his power and he's a bit in a competition with himself at the moment. He won a grand slam in each surface, and the olympics is another challenge in unchartered territory. Not to mention the opportunity to play with an absolute idol like Nadal, and play for his country, which is precious for some players, and I think Carlos is one of them. Wimbledon will be there next year and every year after that. Idk, that's the vibe I get.
Loved this video! Does it have a podcast?? I like listening to tennis stuff on the go. 🤷♀
He won Wimbledon in straight sets.
alcaraz is generational. the only person that can even breathe the same air as the big 3.
Presumably you have never heard of Sinner?!!
@@alexandregarden6260, Nah. Sinner is a brilliant player but Alcaraz will have the much better career and will be the genuine megastar of the pair.
Too much promotion!
Carlos beats the top 3 on SPORTSMANSHIP, for now. He likes wining clean and hard, and the new generation has taken TENIS to the NEXT LEVEL. Wimbledon could teach F1 FIA a few codes of conduct🧐
@@alexandregarden6260 I’ve heard of sinner. Doesn’t change anything
Alcaraz has the strength and vigor of Nadal, the defense and stability of Novak, the virtuosity and versatility of Federer. He is the most complete tennis player I have ever seen, while still so young.
Alcaraz will surpass the three kings almost certainly.
He and Sinner are the best things that happen to tennis in the last 10 years, which (to be honestly brutal) were a big drought in tennis - yes, good player were emerging out during that drought, but not tennis greats. Alcaraz and Sinner have potential to be just that.
Carlito´s tennis IQ is certainly higher than the overall IQ of those who underestimate his tennis IQ.
You're only 1 or 2 of the rest of people that predicted Alcaraz would win over Novak in Wimbledon 2024.I've always believed Carlitos can win any game. He's resourceful, creative, fast, strong, athletic, tenacious and resilient. It's mesmerizing and enjoyable to watch him. Then his humility, his smiles, and his gentlemanly manners, make you like and admire him more. His parents are lucky and should be very proud of him. They bred him and I suppose all their children well. Congratulations!🎉
Great video! Thank you for your thoughts! Carlos is already a great champion and definitely a thinker on the court. He can produce any type of shot at any given point of time on the court. Agree that he doesn't need to become fancy in order to win titles, sometimes he just needs to play more bully and more straight tennis in order to win big and small matches. Great player and personality!
I think he will be the best player of all time
I guess we’ll see 👍🏻
And your qualification for stating this is what ?
He is one of the best already
@@alexandregarden6260 They weren't stating a fact, they were stating a prediction. Those don't require qualifications or statistics or anything, it's just a guess dude
I don't think anyone will ever win Roland Garros 14 times ever again
def better than 2 of the big 3 at their age, rafa was different
Rafa was better on clay, undisputed. Overall, Carlos is arguably better at age 21.
@@_spacyzuma very simplistic take. What the orignal poster refers to is the attitude and focus on court, which was very mature and unlike any 16 year old. Nadal literally handled matches the same way since he started playing in the professional tour.
Rafa was in 5 straight Wimbledon finals, from 2007-11. Dont forget that.
He was an all around beast@@_spacyzuma
@@dididubalier2196 In 2006 he established himself as second best on grass, but he was still struggling to make it past the first week at the hard court slams. Only in mid-2008 did he become a top player on all surfaces.
@@dididubalier2196 not the be that guy but not quitteee right, 06,07,08__10,11 were his five
Once again, Noah, well spoken! Honestly, this new generational talent should reinvigorate the fighting spirit of multiple countries across the world, and perhaps introduce new countries from SEA (Vietnam, Philippines, Cambodia, Laos, Nepal), to the ATP that'll allow themselves to be put on the tennis map, because as of recent the most notable SEA player that wasn't prone to injuries, overhyped, or slamless was Paradorn Srichaphan (I don't consider the new generation of Nishikori, Nishioka, Sugita, Chung, Kwon, Duckhee Lee, Yen-Hsieh Lu, Yibing Wu, to be influential, because none of them were able to win a slam, although Nishikori/Chung were the closest, and the players from above had their country already repped on the map). Not to mention, most SEA countries like The Philippines, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, etc are underrepresented, because either their gov't doesn't prioritize tennis; or it's too corrupt to pursue a tennis career in that country, so they have to move out of their home SEA country just to represent another non-SEA country (take Karatsev who had to represent RUS instead of Israel).
I agree with you 100%. I actually think he's too aggressive that he needs his coach to calm him down. I'm always rooting for him. He's very resourceful and can just hit the ball wherever it is. I hope he defends his title well
I personaly think that Alcaraz is a very complete player with all the shots and creativity you could want however sometimes it seems to me that he loses focus during matches especially when he is winning. And sometimes he just walks onto the court and doesn't look like he is too motivated to play like on the match against Draper.I still think he is a great player and as he gets older he will get better at these little things. Another think that is kind of obvious is that sometimes he tries to play too perfectly and he ends up making a lot of mistakes
The argument that coaching makes such a big difference to Carlitos' wins is so ridiculous. If that is the case, then the other players on tour that also have great coaches should be winning at the same rate? No matter what your coach tells you, once the ball is in play, it is all down to your instincts, talent, experience, doggedness, and mental strength.
Alcaraz and sinner will be dominant for a very long time barring injury.
I agree!
Am cheered by the fact that they both have cheerful and sportsmanlike personalities.
Look forward to their competitiveness and superb tennis abilities over the coming years.
I wish them both well.
@@Courtside_Tennis it will be a completely new era, but to watch these incredibly gifted individuals come up against each other could just be something to treasure.
The fact that they are both incredibly nice people just comes as a bonus !
Have a small doubt in the back of my brain that you might be American ?!!
Rather a shame that your politicians cannot display either the skill nor integrity of these current tennis stars.
Bravo Tommy Paul by the way.
@@alexandregarden6260 yep it's a friggin disaster here.
Trying to predict how many Slams someone at 21, even someone as talented as Alcaraz, is a pointless exercise.
And the interesting thing is that Alcaraz himself says this. In his interview at Wimbledon he said he may win 30, he may win 4 (his current total). That’s wisdom.
After that recent incredible Wimbledon tournament, where he beat the greatest player of all time in straight sets at the finals, I think Carlos Alcaraz is the new evolution in the great game of tennis. He'll surpass everyone that came before him, ...and he's still only 21! WOW
federer is like
"bro, I haven't even played him yet"
I might give him one of the three, but not Rafa for sure. Nadal from 19-21 was more dominant than Alcaraz has been. Becker needs to look not just at majors but also at the Masters titles Rafa was winning.
There has always been coaching in tennis, but it was hidden before. And at the end of the day, the one who holds the racket is the player.
Alcaraz-Nadal doubles will be epic. Alcaraz will probably get even better after teaming-up with Rafa. I was lucky enough to play doubles with an old-timer when I was young, and I learned so much from him.
That's an interesting comment, I didn't think about It but makes a lot of sense....🏆😌😉
I've seen an interview of someone who knew a very young Carlos, a previous coach or a club player in Murcia I can't remember exactly. But he said he used to see Carlos go to the club everyday with his dad and play. If not playing, he would be talking about tennis and watching tennis with other club members and discuss how this player should do this or that, talking about plays he would have done if he played that point. So yeah, I do not believe he has low tennis IQ. He has been strategizing and thinking tactics since he was a kid! Tennis is in his blood.
How can anybody compare people from different times, so much changes, style, equipment etc. And why does it matter? They are all wonderful sportsmen, let us just enjoy their talent.
GREAT Analysis. Love your research, depth of analysis, and presentation.
Thank you.
Much appreciated!
Alcaraz is surreal...just enjoy his tennis...he is excellence personified...keep shining Carlos...praying for your success all the time..
The Guy is Fantastic, Tennis IQ... Thats a laugh, without His IQ at his age, Trainer or no Trainer, he certainly could not've reached where He is today at his age. We should be glad, happy to have someone who make's Tennis joyous to watch. Hopefully, not too many Injuries.
There is a difference between a person and his game. I choose not to watch some players game because I fine the associated behavior to be off-putting, and I watch some players because of their exemplary behavior. It's a treat when both are exceptional.
Ferrero doesn’t coach Carlos on the things that make him great, those “fancy” things. I actually think those fancy things are what makes Carlos the smartest player because it keeps his mind thinking and active during a match. The “low IQ” comment is laughable. I think Carlos relies on his coaching team to keep him focused and motivated and not so much on how to play the matches. Carlos needs to learn how to internalize his emotions, keep his composure, and figure it out on his own. That’s where the great champions transcend the field consistently.
He had only played 6 matches on grass before winning Queens and Wimbledom in the same year. He beat one of the best grass players of all time and the player with the most slams in history.
I think carlos needs to maintain his level of play when he doesn't need to put too much intensity into it so that he can be not prone to injuries.
I agree
Amazing analysis great job 👏👏👏👏👍❤️
Completely agree that there is no player who was as good at disadvantoug places as alcaraz. Doesnt matter how bad of a position he is in, he can and often will return with a straight winner. That is something no one in the big 3 had as an ability.
al the around the net winners from federer where just normal
Who is Carlitos?
I thought zerve will be great then Alcaraz came and in Wimbledon when I saw him play I was sure he's going to do well. Infact felt like he's going to beat Djokovic who's almost about to beat Federer's record no of Wimbledon if I am not wrong.
Sinner-Nole for the Wimbledon trophy thys year
When he gets consistent, it will be really hard for other players to win anything.
No doubt, see the shots he's making there are no other questions, he's a champion. Aggressive, yet with feel and touch. Alcaraz and Sinner big rivalry.
People are always rushing to diminish Alcaraz's achievements and potential, desperately attributing his success to coaching, i guess in part to humanize him 😂. Even Djokovic said it a while ago, he welcomes the coaching rule and it doesn't take anything away from players because it's still up to them to execute on court. Even the goat with decades of experience will constantly yap with his box especially when Goran was still there.
JCF rarely gives technical instructions or advices, he's usually trying to help Carlos maintain focus, calming him down. Ppl that stubbornly think Alcaraz can't win on his own are foolish as hell, Ferrero being there at uso23 didn't change the result there, when Carlos was on a 8 month titleless drought, JCF was also there. No one blames coaching for his losses but will always rush to discredit his wins. Lame
Also, lets not be fools and pretend players of the past weren't coached on the sly. Listen to Roddick lol.
Other players can listen to their coach as well, Sinner has Cahill and Vagnozzi, they are not quiet either, just watch the semis vs CA at RG.
I hope Alcaraz winning olympics will shut all the ugly traps up to top the summer off 😘😘
Winning championship matches requires talent, both physical, emotional and mental. Not all seeded players are destined to become champion, more so to win multiple final matches. Admittedly, there are lots of excellent players emerging today and Carlos is certainly one of them, a league that belongs to a few.
Robson is always pushing Sinner. But Alcaraz is a phenomenon with extraordinary natural talent.
Well this aged badly for the Wimbledon prediction, he just gone and won it easily, battering Novak. Alcaraz will dominate in years to come and only get better and better.
Alcaraz is very versatile compared to Sinner. Who is a ball smacker and hits hard. Alcaraz makes unforced errors but compensate that all the time with winners. Check all his matches you will see
Great analysis!
The Draper match is over estimated. Carlos had just come off RG.
I’m deeply intrigued at what Nadal and Alcaraz joining for Doubles at the Paris Olyimpics on Clay. Nuff said. If people could speak Spanish, they’d hear very little is being said from Ferrero. 😅 apart from encouraging. Be more , less etc. of course some think he can’t play with out his coach. Don’t forget he’s just 21 . He’ll defend the title.
Carlitos has won a lot of tournaments without Juanki! Nole has had Goran these last years since the coaching rule. Does that not count? Carlos is the most creative player there is. That's IQ of a crazy kind. He gets general tactical advice from his coach but he comes up with stuff no one else does. Case and point: the last game of Wimbledon 23. The way he constructed that game to win the championship is the stuff of unicorns!
As a Spaniard I find it offensive that people call Carlos Alcaraz “Carlitos” , it’s actually belittling. He is not a baby boy and neither do you know him to call him like that. So please be respectful and call him CARLOS.
Carlos himself says He likes to be called Carlitos
Calm down 101088Albertitos
Alcaraz has said several times that he prefers be called Carlitos or Charlie
No es "belittling" de hecho el mismo ha dicho que le gusta el mote y que su círculo cercano lo usa... Igual que "Charlie"
Alcaraz vs Sinner... I can't wait for the next decade in Tennis!
What people don’t understand is Carlos is very young. With time he will grow, & I’m sure with maturity he will problem solve with or a without coach. & that’s scary
Just because you're giving advice to someone, it doesn't mean that they will follow it, or even be able to implement it even if they wanted to!! Like Mike Tyson said, "Everyone has a plan, until they get punched in the face". Nothing wrong with on court coaching in my opinion.
Alcaraz has brought new excitement into the game, instead of incessant hitting from the base line all the time. His drop shot has been adopted a fair bit by lots of the upcoming players, male and female. It is now being used by all, a lot more frequently.
I actually do not like oncourt coaching, but it has been approved.
Of course he has tennis IQ, otherwise why is he the player he is, and as someone rightly said, he is only 21.
I love his personality and his fun and smiles and looks. However, Sinner seems to be very calm and controlled, and I think he will win Wimbledon, but I want Alcaraz and his coach and team to win.
VAMOS CARLITOS 👍💪💪💪
What other sports don't allow you to communicate with your coaching staff during a match?
I think he and all his team have to anticipate the more difficult seasons wich are impossible te be avoided. They must prepare Alcaraz to that poor periods.
This is ridiculous. His coach isn’t problem solving during each point as it’s being played, and Al Perez is a mastermind of placement. Maybe he’s getting a tip on where to serve or coming forward or not, but once he’s in a point he has to figure it out. So I think this is just something to talk about and get views.
Time will tell,nobody knows what the future holds ENOUGH,
The thumbnail photo of Boris Becker is shocking. He has not aged well, and looks terrible. But he sure was an amazing player when he was younger.
No chance he’s better than Nadal at 21. Rafa was in the top 50 by 16 and won his first slam at 18.
Dissecting his guy’s problem solving is laughable. The guy’s 21 and has won 4 slams already- on his way to 20
I've only seen him in two Wimbledon finals. My assessment from that small sample size is that he has every tool you need and does not appear to have a weakness. His shot selection appears to be based on instinct and simply inspired. His drop shots are things of beauty.
Super top players always brings something personal , apart from mastering all techniques. Alcaraz will continue to grow and get less and less beatable. The only thing at this level that can break the run are injuries. Apart from that in a few years he will be the big one.
If Carlos is better at 21 yrs than the big 3, he needs to start defending his titles. I think it is too early to predict this call...
I think you misunderstood the statement. If you understand it, then you will get why NOW is precisely the right time to make “this call”.
He's defended Indian Wells and due to injury was not able to defend his other clay court titles. Winning RG as he did is a spectacular achievement while not 100% physically. That's championship stuff right now.
He defended wimby
Alcaraz is not going to be as good as the three definetly not like Novak
Alcatraz is the greatest I never miss a game I hope he went to the Wimbledon ball
After a year every one will understand the style and shots , alcaraz cannot win the same way
Anyone who believes that Alcaraz has a low tennis IQ likely have low IQ, overall. He's the most intelligent tennis player I've seen in years, but he's also still out there enjoying the game, so much so he's willing to lose if the game will be challenging and fun. Carlos is still a rambunctious and fun loving puppy on the court-- the frontal lobe doesn't fully develop until approximately 25 years old, so expecting him to buckle down completely when he isn't naturally an emotionally rigid type is irrational. His parents have likely raised him to know that it's OK to lose-- loving the game is better than being so obsessed that it becomes unhealthy, mentally, for him. Regarding Ferrero during matches, from what I've witnessed, he seems to offer more emotional support than anything else.
Nothing to lose to making these headline grabbing opinions. Everyone is oohing & ahhing about his 5-set win at the French. I actually thought it was a lowlight. I thought both players were playing not to lose, rather than to win. In one point, Zverev took 5 overheads to finally win the point. It was an exciting rally. Even experts thought so. Zverev was timid with his OHs. Though the angle was there, they were soft like warmups, and Alcaraz was able to retrieve them without much difficulty. The lob returns by Alcaraz were atrocious. They were OH warmup practice feeds.
Federer was actually 27 when he won’t the French, not 28
He is definitely high class
Dude people talk about it cz it's become legal now.. Nadal, Federer and especially Djokovic and Serena Williams all of them talked with their respective boxes throughout their career ... and that's what people need to digest... and since all of them used to talk to their boxes. ..and it couldn't be Policed.. they decided to make it legal and a part of the game
Alcaraz had 3 legends before him to learn from .
a bit of all of them
Many people think that Carlos is taking drugs. But that discussions is banned. Why?
why ppl think that
Many people think you're dumb, but that doesn't mean it's true, right?
It’s funny how non entities have takes on an upcoming legend 😅
I have Spanish roots and I agree Carlos is very good but I'm still a fan of Jannick Sinner. He is more humble.
Showing little expression always is not humility. Carlos is very humble and has charisma.
carlos congratulated jannik when he won ao. jannik never congratulated carlos on rg or wimby. carlos is more humble
@@Adaobieistyping You cannot measure humility visually. Being "thankful" internally is "humility". Nothing wrong with outbursts of achievements.
I think the unfortunate thing is, these younger guys play such a hard style of game that they won't last as long. And if the ATP ever enacts mandatory tournaments like the WTA, injuries will rise.
Everyone said this about Nadal 20 years ago. Here he is 20 years later. Only time will tell.
@@lilslick2231 you are wrong during that time the average physicality on tour and power hitting was way less also due to slower condition of the courts on the tour generally the average rally length has also increased leading to more physical battles hence more likely to be injured
@@AnkitMalviya-l1g 1. My comment did not involve an opinion of which I could be wrong, I simply stated that people said the same about nadal’s game. 2. I said that specifically about Nadal, not the tour as a whole. You can't tell me nadal’s game throughout his career isn't as intense as modern players. 3. The rallies were shorter due to faster courts in the past, not slower. Please develop a sense of critical thinking.
Carlos is definitely better at 21 than Roger was.
Carlos is arguably better at 21 than Novak was, though it's a tough call.
Carlos is absolutely, positively, without a shred of a doubt, at 21, NOT better than Rafa. Not even close.
Alcaraz has more slams than Rafa by age 21.
@@Aneeshtheraveyank beating a 37 year old novak is not impressive boo
@@Aneeshtheraveyank not belittling Carlos but Rafa at 21 was challenging the prime Roger Federer who was a monster on the court. There is no such opposition against Carlos.
Has he got any real challegers like the other three
We shall see.
He’s great but Struff is more fun to watch still
IQ, coach on court advices? That’s none sense, any player from 18 to 21 will require close guidance, is normal and more still at the level of pressure he’s handling. Ferrero may be becoming a major factor for stopping Carlitos from being overly exited and aggressive with his spectacular play, I don’t consider that low IQ, but just being young, for a player like him with that much physicality and power being young is just that, it’s good and bad until he learns to keep control of that, then it will only be good.
Alcaraz is insane but his game style puts too much pressure on his body. He will be very prone to injuries in the future. People sleep on sinner. I believe sinner will win more slams by the end of his career
He is the most talented player out there. He does not need to be so physical. He is 21 and he will learn how to abuse less of his physicality. Sinner is a good talent but is not at the same level. Carlos will win much more GS.
@@manjmac people say the same about nole and see he is the GOAT surpassing roger and rafa
@@AnkitMalviya-l1gthose are rafa's and roger's haters, they just using nole to bully the other 2 😂
@@manjmacagree with the most of it but regarding slams count, I hope you are right but can’t feel too confident about that, sinner seems extremely stable and looks like he’s gonna win a lot.
Anyway time will tell.
Sinner won't win as much as Alcaraz.
Not all tennis players develop or mature at the same speed, and late bloomers are not so rare at all. Alcaraz is an early bloomer for sure. But in any case, to imagine a somewhat linear progression from good to great is just inaccurate, as it has never happened. Agassi, Connors, Becker, Sampras, Lendl, and even the big three Nadal, Federer, and Djokovic, and many others had many ups and downs due to injuries and the emergence of new competitors.
Now, to enter the realm of pure speculation, at 21, having been at the top for 3 years already and considering his game style, Alcaraz has shown a tendency to injury that is likely (as for most players) to get worse over time. That's the only concern I have regarding his career. But I know how Ferrero works and I know that they're working on training styles to extend his career and reduce the risk of serious injuries.
I don't buy into the coach thing.
on court coaching is horrible, i hate that its no longer a straight up 1 on 1 and now we will have a bunch of braindead champions.
No way I am going with Alcaraz to win Wimbledon 2024 🎾
And he did.
@@brendajohnson5525
Sure did just love this young gun he will be no 1 eventually 🎾
I disagree with this analysis. You're insane if you think you can break down his game and comment on it. i mean I get it - you need content. But get real. I think you're scraping the barrel here. I think what gave Alcaraz the advantage against his peers was his fancy shots, because they are so unexpected. Same as Roger's SABR - are you going to say the same thing about Roger? Wow, this was a super annoying lot of nonsense for a video. Quite disappointing.
I think Carlos is here to stay. He’s is obviously a world class player, and barring any injuries will be a top contender for years to come. However, I can hardly watch him. His fist pump after every won point is childish to say the least.
You must not watch must tennis then. I see men and women do it.
Rafa a has been
He will break more records. During to his higher intelligence.
He's won 1 slam per year since winning his first at 19, and now he's 21. RF won his 1st at 21 and had 4 slams by the time he turned 22. They are not the same. RF would have won 3 out of the 4 slams from 04-06 if Safin hadn't won the Australian semi in 05. Comparing these two is a joke. Just a prime example of tennis media is always neededing the next big story. Also, RF won in his prime w/o a coach in case everyone forgot.
roger won 1st slam in 2003 when he was 22
@@AnkitMalviya-l1g yes you're right. Idk why i remebered him being 21. He was 22. Still everyrhing else in my analysis is accurate.
@@dmunozkusterthe comparison is for that age and as you said, roger had no slams at Carlos’s age so at least on paper he has better results for that point in their career.
Overall comparison will be relevant only when he’ll retire and hopefully that’s going to take some time.
No.
imo hs's a great player but yet a very immature personality... i think he's a nice guy though
Immature? To me he's one of the most mature and composed players on tour period...not even considering the fact that he's only 21!
Nope I young federer and nadal would beat him. Competition was not the same for the different generations so this comparison is not valid. 😂
They had roddick safin del Potro Tsonga Berdych Ferrer Novak Murray Stan not zevrev and med lol
Guys, whatever else is true, and I love alcaraz, it is totally pathetic how much coaching he gets during matches. That’s a fact.
