Carlos Alcaraz’s coach Juan Carlos Ferrero returns after recovering from knee injury, leads the Spaniard in training drills

Carlos Alcaraz’s coach Juan Carlos Ferrero is back training the Spaniard for the 2024 season, after completing his recovery from a knee injury.

Ferrero became the coach of the then 16-year-old Carlos Alcaraz in 2019, and their partnership has produced immense success so far. Under the 2003 French Open champion’s guidance, Alcaraz has won 12 titles, including two Majors and four Masters 1000. He also reached the World No. 1 ranking in September 2022.

Ferrero, a former singles World No. 1 himself, went through arthroscopy on his left knee in December last year, which prevented him from traveling to Australia. Ferrero wasn’t present during Alcaraz’s quarterfinal run at the Australian Open, and reports had earlier claimed he would return to his camp only in March.

However, Ferrero Tennis Academy’s X (Formerly Twitter) account recently posted a video of Ferrero doing training drills with Alcaraz. The account implied that the Spanish coach has recovered well from his surgery and that the duo have begun their preparations for the upcoming Latin-American clay court circuit.

“We’re so excited to see Juan Carlos training @carlosalcaraz again after his recovery. It’s time to prepare for the Latin American clay-court circuit! VAMOS TEAM”
