Alcaraz wants to kind like Federer and Nadal

Speaking in Podcast when attending Monte Carlo Masters this week, Alcaraz said that he had learned many things from the legendary Federer and Nadal - those who have retired and he did not have many opportunities to meet on the pitch. "I think the most important thing is to be kind, must be a good person, to behave well. I tell myself to show good value both in and in the yard. Because what you do will be seen by the whole world, especially children ".

Alcaraz has just won the first match at Monte Carlo Masters when surpassing the opponent Francisco Cerundolo on April 9. This is the tournament that Nadal holds 11 times the epidemic. Since his professionalism in 2020, Alcaraz fought Nadal 3 times and lost 2. He also and his fellow idol attended big team events, Davis Cup and Olympic. Meanwhile, the Spanish tennis player did not have the opportunity to fight Federer due to the Swiss legend retired in 2022 and had a long -term break from the injury. "Maintaining psychology is not a simple thing in sports ", the 21 -year -old talent said. "The outbreaks can appear at any time when you go through a stressful score. Federer and Nadal are often calm and perform quite well. When starting a career, they are the model I want to be ".

Alcaraz owns 17 ATP titles, including four Grand Slam. Along with Nadal, he is the most successful young talent in tennis history. But Alcaraz understood that he had a long way to compete and reach the level of Nadal, Federer and Djokovic. "He is a kind person both inside and in the yard. Ferrero spends a lot of time sharing experiences with me. I learn from him not only about tennis, but also about how to be a person". ".

Alcaraz will continue the Monte Carlo Masters campaign against Daniel Altmaier in the third round today. He became the biggest candidate for the title of the championship, after two of the top three seeds, Alexander Zverev and Djokovic were eliminated.
