Alcaraz wants to keep a cool head: "I'm trying not to think about it".
Carlos Alcaraz is a player with a huge following.
A true prodigy of his sport, the Spaniard frequently receives high praise, and some specialists are already comparing him to the greatest players in the history of tennis.
On the occasion of the Laver Cup, where a number of the El Palmar native's team-mates went so far as to call the 20-year-old a tennis legend, Alcaraz was honoured, but was nevertheless keen to tone things down: "For me, it's incredible to hear that my team-mates see me as a legend in the world of tennis.
I try not to think about it. I'm still very young. I think what makes you that is what you bring to your sport.
Attract the widest possible audience, people who have never seen tennis in their lives and who, thanks to you, are starting to watch it on TV or even play it.
I think that's above all what makes you a legend, beyond the tournaments you win or the successes you have."
