Alcaraz Says He Learned Court Versatility From Legends To Reach Tennis Excellence

by Zachary Wimer

Carlos Alcaraz is a versatile player who can play well on all surfaces, something he learned from the game's legends.

The Spaniard is known as a versatile player who can play well on any surface. He might have grown up on clay, but his first Grand Slam came on hard. He even won Wimbledon already, which shows how quickly he can adapt to a surface because he barely played on grass before winning at SW19.

Now, he's in the Roland Garros final with a chance to win a major on clay, further confirming his versatility as a player. He worked towards achieving this because all the legends of the sport played well on all surfaces.

If he wants to become one of the best players in the world, then he has to work towards being good on all surfaces, because Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, and Roger Federer all were.

"Well, I always wanted to be one of the best players in the world. If I want to be, you know, one of the best players in the world, I have to be a good player in every surface, like, Roger did, Novak, Rafa, Murray. The best players in the world had success in every surface."

Alcaraz further explained that he's very capable of adapting his style of play to the surface he's playing on, whatever it is. He grew up on clay and spent most of his childhood on the red dirt, but these days, he feels most comfortable on hard courts.

"So I consider myself a player who adapts very well his style in every surface. And, well, I grew up playing on clay but I feel more comfortable playing on hard court, for example."

"I think my game suits very well to the clay, to clay season, to the clay court, as well. So I just wanted to be a good player in every surface."
