Carlos Alcaraz

Rankings updated weekly · Last updated June 2026

Carlos Alcaraz is one of the most explosive and entertaining players in tennis history. The Spaniard won Wimbledon in 2023 and 2024 and Roland Garros in 2024 and 2025, becoming the first player since Rafael Nadal to win multiple Roland Garros titles before age 22. A wrist injury forced him out of both Roland Garros and Wimbledon in 2026; he returns at the US Open after a four-month layoff. He plays a Babolat Pure Aero 98 close to its off-the-shelf specs — no added lead tape, just a lighter swingweight that suits his explosive swing — strung with RPM Blast at 55/51 lbs.
