Former World No.1 Andy Roddick recently spent some time with Carlos Alcaraz, playing golf with him when the Spaniard was in the US for the exhibition events. Later, Roddick in his podcast said Alcaraz could find himself in a tough situation.

Alcaraz took his tally of Grand Slam titles to four after he clinched the French Open and Wimbledon this year. The 2022 US Open was his first Major and the next year saw him deny Novak Djokovic accomplishing the Grand Slam by beating him in five sets at Wimbledon.

This season, he became the youngest player to win Majors on all three surfaces when he won the French Open. The 21-year-old again beat Djokovic at the 2024 Wimbledon final. These achievements, as per Roddick, mean Alcaraz has become a ‘celebrity’ and ‘people are thirsty to see him’ and this is why the American thinks the youngster’s scheduling decisions could disappoint some fans.

Roddick also doesn’t want Alcaraz to complain about the schedule in Australia after participating in exhibition events during the off-season.

Andrey Rublev has faced and defeated every member of the Big 3. He led 1-0 against Roger Federer and was 2-1 against Rafael Nadal, but Novak Djokovic defeated him five times in their six matches.

Although Federer and Nadal retired, the tennis world saw the emergence of Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, who are making headlines for their performances. Rublev commented on the situation when he was asked if the two youngsters frustrate him on the courts.

The Russian has locked horns with World No.1 Sinner nine times but defeated him thrice. But against the World No.2, the 27-year-old is 1-2 in their head-to-head encounter.
