Alcaraz achieves a statistic that only the Big 3 have achieved in the last twenty years
Carlos Alcaraz enjoyed a successful 2024, with two Grand Slam titles (Roland Garros and Wimbledon), victory at Indian Wells and a silver medal at the Paris Olympic Games.
Thanks to these good results, the Spaniard managed to remain in the Top 3 of the ATP rankings, finishing 3rd in the world behind Alexander Zverev and Jannik Sinner.
After 2022, when he finished world No.1, and 2023, when he was runner-up to Novak Djokovic, Alcaraz has thus completed his third consecutive season among the world's top three.
A feat that has not been achieved by any player outside the Big 3 (Federer, Nadal, Djokovic) over the last twenty years, and which attests to the Spaniard's consistency season after season.
