Carlos Alcaraz had a wonderful run this year and we are hoping that it continues. The Spaniard started off by winning the Rio Open that took place in February. He then made headlined when he won the Miami Open which had the top seed present and made a name for himself. The 18-year-old then crashed out in the round of 32 against American youngster Sebastian Korda but quickly recovered to win the Barcelona Open. The Spaniard will now appear in the Madrid Open where all the top seeds will be found, including his idol Rafael Nadal who will make his first appearance on clay before the French Open.
