Alcaraz Chooses Olympic Gold Over Grand Slam In 2024 As Ultimate Achievement

Carlos Alcaraz has chosen the Olympic Gold over any Grand Slam in 2024 as the ultimate goal, calling it a dream.

Alcaraz once dreamed of winning a Grand Slam trophy and achieved it two years ago at the US Open. He added another one last year at Wimbledon, and while it's still one of his main goals, 2024 has something more to offer.

There are Olympics held in Paris on clay, which is unique. As someone who grew up on clay, Alcaraz clearly fancies his chances, and he actually named it his ultimate goal for this year. Speaking ahead of the 2024 Argentina Open, Alcaraz confirmed it's a huge dream to win the gold medal for his country - Spain.
