Carlos Alcaraz recently called his rival Holger Rune the biggest trash talker on tour. In a fun section via ATP, the Spaniard was put to a rapid-fire test by famous YouTuber Sharky, who asked him a few juicy questions to try to entertain the audience. 

The 21-year-old has been riding high after clinching the Channel Slam, which is winning the French Open and Wimbledon in the same year. After an amazing French Open win, Alcaraz outdid himself by beating Novak Djokovic in straight sets to claim his second straight Wimbledon title.

After this win, Alcaraz has been completely busy with many interviews. One of them is a newly released “Down The T With Sharky”, where the Beta squad member got some honest answers from his first guest, Carlos Alcaraz

An interesting question that was asked in the interview was who is the biggest trash talker on tour. Without any hesitation or thought, Alcaraz straight away said Holger Rune. The Dane is indeed known for his trash talk, but it was rather surprising that Alcaraz would call out his name. 

Rune, sorry but that’s what I thought.
Carlos Alcaraz said in the casual interview.

Other than this, the Spaniard had a great laugh with Sharky as they laughed over Frances Tiafoe being the answer to many of the rapid-fire questions.

Carlos Alcaraz reckons Alex de Minaur should have won more titles

The juicy questions did not just end with Holger Rune. Sharky kept the entertainment on the rise with other questions. One that could have easily been controversial was about which player should have won more titles.

Surprisingly, Alcaraz took the name of Alex de Minaur. The Australian has improved this year but shockingly, Alcaraz reckoned that he should have won more titles. Right before this, the Spaniard even said that de Mianur was the most underrated player. 

Alcaraz was no-filter during the whole interview and gave some solid answers. The Spaniard will be busy for another couple of days before he gets to work for the upcoming Paris Olympics. Alcaraz is set to make his debut at the Summer Games and also play alongside his compatriot Rafael Nadal in doubles.
