Becker: "The right to live one's life".

Carlos Alcaraz has had a prodigious 2024 season. Winner of the French Open and Wimbledon, he also took Olympic silver at the Paris Olympics.

Clearly exhausted by his never-ending season, the Spaniard is beginning to stall and his results are becoming disappointing. Beaten from the start in Cincinnati, he didn't do much better at the US Open, falling in the second round to Bottic Van de Zandschulp (6-1, 7-5, 6-4).

Back in Spain, the El Palmar prodigy gave himself a little respite on Sunday, travelling to Manza to attend the Formula 1 Grand Prix. A choice that didn't go down well with a large number of Internet users, who criticized him for not being in training.

Faced with this succession of messages, Boris Becker defended the world number 3: "Carlos should have the right to live his life a little."
