While Carlos Alcaraz didn’t have the best of finishes last year, he is looking for a positive start to the season with the Number 1 ranking in sight. He is returning to play the Grand Slam Down Under after missing the previous edition due to injury. As a result, he isn’t defending any points and is taking no pressure ahead of the tournament. Additionally, he has added a fierce look to his outfit for the opening major tournament of the season.

The Spaniard has had a good warmup ahead of the tournament, playing a couple of exhibition matches. However, his outfit choice is raising eyebrows even before the start of the event.

Recently, Marca revealed that the Spaniard will go for a sleeveless shirt, showing off his chiseled physique in front of millions of fans. The outfit will be designed by Nike, who has partnered with Alcaraz during his career. The conditions in Melbourne will be warm and this is one of the factors behind Alcaraz opting for a no-sleeve look.

Alcaraz is strong mentally as well

Playing a sport at the highest level requires great mental conditioning along with physical strength. Ask Carlos Alcaraz, who seldom loses his calm and gives his best. This effect is from his newly added trait.

He said, “Probably I’m stronger mentally. Right now, comparing to Paris, I’ve spoken about dealing with the pressure, dealing with tough, tough moments. In Paris, I didn’t deal with the pressure. I learned about that situation.”
