Atp rankings

Tennis has been fooled before... but the big change everyone has waited for 'may finally' be here.

Nadal won the first of his 92 titles at Sopot at the age of 18 in 2004. Alcaraz, who learned the game at a tennis school run by his father, was also 18 when he captured his maiden ATP trophy at Umag in 2021. “The only thing we can do is enjoy the career of an extraordinary player like Carlos. I compete whenever I play anything -- golf, petanca,” said Alcaraz after winning the Madrid Masters this year. Alcaraz and Ferrero have developed a deep professional and personal bond. “Congratulations Carlos Alcaraz for your first Grand Slam and [world] No. 1 at some point, but to see him do it here by winning is absolutely historic.” “Listen, I’ve been talking about ‘When’s the changing of the guard? I think it may have finally happened,” McEnroe said earlier in the week. He has every single thing to become a huge star,” Nadal added. But going back to Alcaraz, this moment is undoubtedly about him. But in September last year, Toni Nadal sensed that it was finally happening.
