In the world of tennis, Carlos Alcaraz is a familiar face, always gracious with the media and known for his talent on the court. However, recently, the tables turned as his peers took on the role of questioners in a hilarious Q&A session.
Fellow ATP stars such as Jannik Sinner and Daniil Medvedev did not hold back as they grilled Alcaraz on a variety of topics, both on and off the court. Sinner was curious about the origins of Alcaraz’s famous drop shot, while Medvedev inquired about his aggressive playing style from a young age.
In response to Medvedev’s question, Alcaraz humorously admitted that he was “super skinny” as a child, showcasing his lighthearted nature. The banter continued as Novak Djokovic asked Alcaraz about his favorite sneakers, to which the noted sneaker head revealed his love for his Air Jordan 1s.
Adding to the off-court fun, Grigor Dimitrov jokingly asked if Alcaraz, a Louis Vuitton ambassador, could secure him a discount on the luxury brand’s products. Alcaraz, with a smile, replied that while he would love to, he unfortunately did not have the power to do so.
Looking beyond the world of tennis, Alcaraz’s US Open final opponent and future golfing buddy, Casper Ruud, posed a question about Alcaraz’s dream foursome. With no hesitation, Alcaraz chose former Masters winner Jon Rahm and his fellow Spaniard Rafael Nadal, showcasing his admiration for both golf and tennis legends.
In a rare behind-the-scenes glimpse, Alcaraz’s interactions with his peers revealed not only his talent on the court but also his affable personality and sense of humor. The Q&A session provided a refreshing look at the lighter side of the tennis world, highlighting the camaraderie shared among players off the court.
