Spain’s tennis star Carlos Alcaraz has showcased his commitment towards the sport by stating that there are no holidays for elite athletes.
The 20-year-old is often regarded as one of the most highly-rated young tennis players currently playing in the men’s singles category alongside Italy’s Jannik Sinner and America’s Ben Shelton.
Alcaraz, in a post on his official account on social media platform X — previously known as Twitter — showcased his commitment to the fans by writing: “Last day before Christmas and more tennis! We don’t stop for holidays.”

Alcaraz made a name for himself earlier this year when he lifted the Wimbledon title after beating the current world number one and Serbia’s legendary tennis star Novak Djokovic in a five-set thrilling final with a score of 1–6, 7–6(8–6), 6–1, 3–6, 6–4.
However, after that, Alcaraz had a slightly harder time as he could not keep his top spot in the ATP Ranking after losing to the world number three Russia’s Daniil Medvedev in the semifinal of the US Open with a score of 7-6, 6-1, 3-6, 6-3.
He did not have a great end to the season as he lost the semifinal of the ATP Finals to Djokovic in straight sets with a score of 6-3, 6-2.
