Popstar Enrique Iglesias has congratulated Carlos Alcaraz for winning the 2022 Miami Open. The Spanish singer-songwriter shared a video of the 18-year-old star dancing to one of his songs.
Alcaraz downed Norway's Casper Ruud 7-5, 6-4 in the final of the 2022 Miami Open on Sunday to claim his first ATP Masters 1000 title. He became the first Spanish man to win the tournament in its 37-year history, with Arantxa Sanchez Vicario the only Spanish woman to triumph in Miami.
The teenager broke Novak Djokovic's record to become the youngest ever ATP Miami Open champion. He is also the third youngest ATP Masters 1000 winner after Michael Chang and Rafael Nadal.

Following the Spaniard's victory, Iglesias posted a video on his Twitter account of his countryman dancing to the tune of 'Bailando'.
Iglesias captioned his tweet with "felicidades (congratulations)" and an emoji of a bottle of champagne.
The original video is from 2021, when the then 17-year-old celebrated the end of his hotel quarantine ahead of the Australian Open.
