Carlos Alcaraz

Carlos Alcaraz is a Spanish tennis player who is currently making headlines at the 2026 Australian Open. He is the top-ranked player and has advanced to the final, marking his first time reaching the semifinals and final at this Grand Slam. Alcaraz defeated Alex de Minaur in the quarterfinals and Alexander Zverev in a five-set semi-final, a match that drew controversy due to a medical timeout taken by Alcaraz. His victory over Zverev made him the youngest man in the Open era to reach the finals of all four Grand Slam tournaments. Alcaraz is now in contention to become the youngest player to win all four majors. He will face Novak Djokovic in the final. His performance is significant as he aims to continue his Grand Slam success and solidify his position as a leading figure in men's tennis.
