I'm a stripling at a mere 55, but likewise - I've been joking that he's the secret lovechild of Federer and Nadal. It's the first time I've ever seen the complete package in one player.
It's enormously tiresome to listen, even for a short while, to a non-native English speaker as it is the case with this bloke; his pronunciation, intonation and pitch are just pathetic to say the least. He should stop making video clips in English, no objection of course if he makes them in his native lingo, whatever the latter might be.
There is something magical about Carlos playing on grass. On hard court, he shines thanks to his incredible speed and athleticism, on clay, he destroys opponents due to his raw power and endurance. But on grass, his amazing skill, masterful shot selection and technical perfection really stands out. Who would have said few years back that grass would be his royal surface.
Well in all thé surfaces he uses his amazing qu’il masteful shot sélection and Technical perfection and touch qualificty its not just his speed or endurance hé win bécause of his natural talent
@@benitadewet9344well because he doesnt play with just force but also with touch creativity All of the people know that Hé is skillfull with thé racket in all the surface Its his game after all variety créativity power and touch fineness
I love your take on Carlos. 4 Slams and counting. When i first saw Carlos play, i knew that 16yr old was going to be very very special. The way he dissected Novak was sublime. I for one was not shocked. Great video...AGAIN MATE☝🏽💜🌎🌍🌏
Alcaraz has that natural touch that only the very few players have and together with his tennis IQ, knowing how and when to play a shot, the awarness of his opponent, wow!!! Alcaraz, right now, reminds me of young Roger Federer, plus with the hype around how he plays the game. It's like living through that Roger era but it's Carlos era. I'm so happy.
When we hear Carlos playing he seems coming from another planet ! All the court is on another level … and we too also , he makes with agility, jumping, insane,… shouting with strength. he is focus on all points and. All games !! Thanks to give life like that to the tennis..,you were his kid you are really today his man so handsome ! 💕 love
I think the most unique shot of Carlos that I never saw in other players, is that little flick forehand that he does when he is caught out of position, in 6:58, we saw that against Djokovic in the first game of 2024 wimbledon Final. He manages to flick that forehand with so much power even if he is out of position, scary stuff.
Alcatraz’ game is actually tailor made for all surfaces, but clay more than others. A lot of top spin and tremendous groundstroke power, countless drop shots, and insane speed. All best suited for clay. However he doesn’t have any surface weakness. At this point, medium and fast hard courts are his weakest surfaces like many Spaniards. Alcatraz is truly almost a combination of the big 3. Young Nadal’s speed, Federer’s shotmaking and Djokovic’s flexibility/defensive skill. Honestly, if you are objective and compare his game to the big 3 at the same age, it’s not close. Nadal is better on clay but that’s it. Alcatraz’ is by far the most imposing at that age, ever. Although, chances are he will not have a career anything like the big 3. Alcatraz’ game is dependent on an extremely high PEAK. Not an high floor, unlike Djokovic, Nadal and to some extent Federer. This means he’s mercurial, and once he loses his speed and/or power, his results will fall into the tank.
@@Mark-ut5oq i think you haven't seen his game enough to know the fact that on clay he is often confused when to play attacking and when to play defensive and the net game which is his strength isn't that effective on clay whereas on Grass his 1-2 punch game and offensive strengths are suited hence Wimbledon being his best grandslam till date and i see him winning it many times in the future, the speed factor applies more so on clay🤷♂️
I don't think most people realize how much racket-head speed he produces. Those winners that come out of nowhere, especially on no-pace balls, where he flattens it out, still probably have 2500 RPMs of juice. He has a margin of error even when he takes maximum risk. He's unbelievable to watch.
You should include the FINAL at Indian Wells 2024 against Meddy. Alcaraz ran and slid to save a drop shot, Jumped up to retrieve a lob shot but couldn't, so he sprinted to save it, then shot the ball past Meddy to the baseline This got him a standing ovation and left Meddy speechless. th-cam.com/video/SvE-pigH5mU/w-d-xo.html
Como dijo Nole: Alcaraz es demasiado bueno. Y lo dice una leyenda del tenis. Por consiguiente, ignorantes y / o fanáticos, abstenerse de comentarios. Son contraproducentes.
Does anyone know which match it was that Carlos was waiting for the other player and began to play ‘air tennis’ by swinging his racket through the air, in front of crowd? Yes, they applauded:)
@@lotus630 He did NOT come out of nowhere. He turned pro in 2018. This is him when he's 14 at Junior Nitto ATP FInals in 2017 th-cam.com/video/WjeU_AzNrUM/w-d-xo.html
This kid is like a cyborg, the next evolution in tennis. At 6ft, he can fire 140mph serves or a vicious kick, and that's the weakest part of his game. Runs about a 4.2 40yd dash with the softest hands around the net I've ever seen by a 17-21 year-old.
Carlos idol is Roger and he plays attack style . But he can defend like Nadal and nole when needed. Though he clearly loves to attack more instead of boring rallies
He is not anywhere near on GRASS where Roger was in his prime, not in style, not in serving. But his game is maybe better to beat Novak, thats a fact. Still Novak is also behind his prime now.. even though he won 3 Slams last year, and wimbledon til 2022.. But Carlos is amazing nonetheless, but please dont put him over Fed before he has like 7 Wimbledon titles
I thought I would stop watching tennis since Rafa's decline, but with YOUR videos, now I am watching Carlos Alcaraz. Thank you!
He is the best tennis player in the world
He has won the World Cup
His match was against Novak Djkovic
way more enjoyable to watch than Rafa IMO
I am a 65 yr old lifetime tennis fan. I have NEVER seen so many skills together in one player, NEVER!
ME too and I’m 73, he is inventing new technics for us to enjoy his game that I’ve never seen before to anyone. His touch is magical.😂😂

Indeed. In the final, he did not execute all his shots with brutal force. Some very lighter touches, and I'm not referring to his dropshots.

Well said. I can tell you know tennis. The only problem for Alcaraz is that Sinner is just as good as (or very similar level) he is on hard court.
@@YoungYoung-k5u well alcaraz use carrière ans créativity and variety in all surfaces that can give hime some advantage
Its not just force at all
Excellent choice of highlights of the world’s true number one. Thanks for posting this!
Glad you enjoyed it, dear! ❤️
Now he has 4GS. You can't put out videos fast enough to keep up with him. 😎
😂😂😂
Alcaraz is the proof that play the "nice tennis" still pay off. Thank you Carlos
Carlos has dispelled the notion of a GOAT in tennis. He has it all.

Appreciate the kind words buddy ❤️
He caught my attention at US Open, probably in 2021. There was something about him.
@@WivoRN Have you done a video comparing the beginnings of the big 3 and where Carlos is now?
Unfortunately not but that's a great idea!
@@WivoRN ☝🏽💜
Carlos is superb. I had never seen anyone as good. It is unreal. However, that is an understatement. It is highly incredible and outrageous.

Alacaraz with the racquet is like Maradona with his left leg, pure magic
Awesome! Hope he gets better with each passing year!
We see the way of a GOAT ❤
Unbelievable! Love watching him play!❤🌞

Carlos did not come out of nowhere, but from Spain, perhaps the country with the best tennis infrastructure (both venues and coaches).
Not Borg, Connors, McEnroe, Agassi, Sampras, Federer or anyone else, but Alcaraz is the best on the planet.. He is insane, he is on another level.
He served 130 mph serves regularly in semi and final shocking nole and med. He kept that surprise lol
In the modern era, there is nothing else like carlitos on grass
Grass, clay, hard, indoors, ice, tacks....a minefield...Carlos can play on them all😂...Love love love the guy.
He is very underrated on grass yet because of spain
@@raghumanda2tanush496 2 Big W championships later and people now know Carlos is a genuine grass player ☝🏽💜✌🏽
@@pawshands9706 nope, wait for an year, they will forget, many will say he is good only in clay

I finally got a chance to see him in person and was astounded by this. So impressive.
he now has 4 GS ;) VAMOS
simplemente , en tenis: un mago , un ser superior, un SUPERDOTADO.
That "Bravo" from Dimitrov 🔥
best of the world rn damn
8:25 is a pretty good display of this sport, what a point 🔥
The beast...
Carlos Alcaraz is exciting to watch, and I think the best Tennis player in the world!
21. Just 21 years old. That is insane. Tennis as a sport needs him to stay injury free.
Great Carlos 👍😍
Alcagrass❤
Y todavía tiene que seguir aprendiendo, mejorando y perfeccionando, para transformarse en un gran maestro artista del tenis.
Alcaraz jugando al estilo del siglo XXII. (todo del siglo XXI esta obsoleto para alcaraz ) DIOS ES ESPAÑOL
I am still on team Federer. I still haven't seen anyone that elegant and creative as that guy
I'm a Federer fan too but he's retired. Moving ahead to the present and future Carlos has made me love watching tennis again. He is very special.
Me too BUT Carlos is next best thing! Let’s hope he stays injury free! He made me love tennis again after Fed reti!

He didn't come out of nowhere if you had followed ATP properly.
Not everyone has Spanish dick to have followed him up from 700😮
relatively came out of nowhere
most players take many years of grinding to reach the top
Alcaraz did the year right after he won the nextgen finals

I think he's reached 136mph on his serve but nevertheless he's a spectacular athlete.
Us open next. 2 Wimbledon 1 French 21 years old
1 US open already, his first GS. Aus open next.
Carlos idol is Roger and he plays attack style . But he can defend like Nadal and nole when needed. Though he clearly loves to attack more instead of boring rallies
4 GS now, did you forget?
alcaraZZZZZZ
7:55
Bruce Lee at his best.
PRODIGY!!
More slams than Murray already
I know the Spanish pronunciation is Alcarath but he deserves the strong, powerful Z in his name! Every time they say Alcarath I want to scream😂
This is not wimbledon . You can only wear white in wimbledon. This is some grasscourt tournament .
This footage is from Queens. He said 'Wimbledon/grass court' which Queens is.
Alcahahajahahahaaaaaaa~~
He is not anywhere near on GRASS where Roger was in his prime, not in style, not in serving. But his game is maybe better to beat Novak, thats a fact. Still Novak is also behind his prime now.. even though he won 3 Slams last year, and wimbledon til 2022..
But Carlos is amazing nonetheless, but please dont put him over Fed before he has like 7 Wimbledon titles
first
Efectivo sí pero bello NO!! Al joven le falta clase y elegancia que quizás solo unos cuantos Nacen con esas cualidades
But if the points we have just seen are all beautiful, what do you say?
Son todos puntos elegantes y bellos.
You want Alcaraz to do plies and pirouettes? it's tennis not ballet
Mexicans should stick to talking about drug lords, organized crime, and stuff they actually know.
the thing is that you don't like it
