Carlos Alcaraz aims to join Borg, Federer elite club

London, June 29 (UNI) As the Wimbledon 2025 campaign progresses, all eyes are on Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz, who is aiming to win his third consecutive title at the All England Club. The 22-year-old sensation has emerged as the face of men’s tennis in the post-Federer-Nadal-Djokovic era, demonstrating remarkable consistency, flair, and maturity well beyond his age.
After capturing his first Wimbledon crown in 2023 — in only his fourth tournament on grass — and repeating the feat in 2024 by completing the rare “Channel Slam” (winning both Roland-Garros and Wimbledon in the same year), Alcaraz now attempts to join the elite company of Bjorn Borg, Pete Sampras, Roger Federer, and Novak Djokovic as the only men in the Open Era to lift three consecutive Wimbledon titles.
The young Spaniard already has four Grand Slam titles to his name and became the youngest-ever World No. 1 after his 2022 US Open triumph. He has also claimed an Olympic silver medal and titles on all surfaces, establishing himself as a complete and dynamic player. Djokovic, who lost to Alcaraz in the 2023 Wimbledon final, hailed him as “the most complete player” he has faced, praising his adaptability, defensive skills, and mental resilience.
Off the court, Alcaraz remains grounded. His Netflix docuseries Carlos Alcaraz: My Way, released in April this year, has offered fans a rare glimpse into his life, adding to his growing global popularity. Known for his sportsmanship, humility, and ever-present smile, Alcaraz has won admirers across the tennis world.
Speaking about his aspirations, Alcaraz said, “At the end of my career, I want to sit at the same table as the big guys. I don’t know my limit. I just want to keep enjoying my moment, keep dreaming.”
With Italian star Jannik Sinner emerging as his primary rival on the circuit, the coming years could witness a fresh era of great tennis rivalries.
As Wimbledon enters its decisive phase, tennis fans and experts alike agree that men’s tennis is in safe hands — with Alcaraz leading the way into a new golden era.
