Alcaraz makes no secret of his ambitions: "I've always wanted to be one of the best players in the world".

Alcaraz makes no secret of his ambitions: I've always wanted to be one of the best players in the world.

At just 21 years of age, Carlos Alcaraz is an ambitious man. Already winner of the US Open (2022) and Wimbledon (2023), this Sunday he has the opportunity to win his third Grand Slam title at Roland-Garros.

After a fine tournament, he is now just one match away from consecration. So, before meeting Alexander Zverev (4th and title-holder in Rome before Paris) in the final, 'Carlito' made no secret of the fact. The young Spaniard is determined to make his mark on the history of his sport.

That's what he explained in his press conference. I wanted to put my name on the list of Spanish players who have won this tournament. It's not just Rafa. Ferrero, Moya, Costa, many Spanish players, legends of our sport who have all won the tournament here.

I really want to put my name on that list. Breaking new records is a big goal for me. I've always wanted to be one of the best players in the world. If I want to be one of the best players in the world, I have to be a good player on all surfaces, like Roger (Federer) did, Novak (Djokovic), Rafa, Murray. The best players in the world have succeeded on all surfaces."
