Qualifying today for the semi-finals of the Beijing tournament, Carlos Alcaraz has set a new record: 61 victories this year, with many tournaments still to come at the end of 2023. Beyond the anecdote of the number, it is above all the Spanish player's consistency that should be highlighted. He'll be facing Italy's Jannick Sinner today in a bid to qualify for his 1st Asian final at just 20 years of age. Carlitos also loves the beautiful game and panache, which means that the future belongs to him if his physique holds up well. A skilful combination for his staff, headed by Juan Carlos Ferrero, who must take care to protect the diamond he polishes on a daily basis.

Vamos Carlitos!
