Carlos Alcaraz on his French Open 2024 success: "This one is the moment that I'm really proud about myself"
Carlos Alcaraz reflected on his Grand Slam success after clinching his third at the French Open. The Spaniard, at the young age of 21, has already earned accolades that many can only dream of.
He won his maiden Major at the 2022 US Open and subsequently became the youngest World No. 1 in ATP history. When asked about his proudest achievement so far, he said:
"I mean obviously the US Open when I reached for the first time the No. 1 -- something that I dreamed since I started playing tennis; getting my first Grand Slam, so it's pretty special," he said in his post-match press conference at the French Open.
Spoiled for choice, Alcaraz also highlighted his remarkable victory against Novak Djokovic at the 2023 Wimbledon Championships, where the Serb was a four-time defending champion.
"But honestly the way that I won Wimbledon beating Novak Djokovic in five sets it's been a great achievement for me," he added.
The Spaniard, though, picked his Roland-Garros win as his “proudest” moment, considering the concerns surrounding his fitness in the lead-up to the tournament.
"And right now lifting the Roland-Garros trophy, knowing everything that I've been through the last month with the injuries and all that stuff. I don't know, probably this one is the moment that I’m really proud about myself because of everything that I've done the last month just to be ready for this tournament with my team," he said.
"I'm gonna say this one is the most that I'm proud about myself."
With the French Open title, Carlos Alcaraz became the youngest man in history to complete the career Surface Slam, winning a Major on all three surfaces. The 21-year-old followed in the footsteps of 10 other Spaniards who have found success at the event, including his coach Juan Carlos Ferrero and 14-time champion Rafael Nadal.
