Carlos Alcaraz has achieved a lot in a very short span of his career be it being ranked as world number 1 or winning grand slams. Just at the age of 20, he has made a mark in the world of tennis like no other player. And now he has been rewarded with another honor that not a lot of tennis players can boast about.
