Sensation Carlos Alcaraz: the new Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer and André Agassi in one | Sport

By Rik Spekenbrink

Carlos Alcaraz’s grandfather taught him the importance of the three Cs: cabeza, corazón and cojones. Head, heart and balls. “I always carry that motto with me,” said the great tennis revelation of the moment in Miami. At the age of 18 he won the masters tournament there last night. Only Michael Chang and Rafael Nadal were (slightly) younger when they won such a big event for the first time. Alcaraz was the first Spanish winner in Miami and was congratulated by King Felipe by telephone.
