Like most tennis stars, Alcaraz’s family is there to support him throughout the Grass Slam. As he gets ready to relax and recover to defend his Wimbledon glory, his parents are still enjoying their son’s victory over the Russian as they share an endearing moment.

However, the celebration had just begun, as the camera switched to his box. The camera captured his parents enjoying themselves as they smiled, kissed, and then embraced each other in an endearing hug. Their prodigious son is all set to defend his crown, after winning French Open 2024.
