Carlos Alcaraz has displayed a great game and consistent form this season. But as a former World No.1, consistency is not enough for the trailblazing Spaniard. He has to surpass himself and improve his skills before competing against his opponents. Ahead of the Shanghai Rolex Masters, the young champion revealed that his ultimate goal for the season is to seize this throne back from Novak Djokovic. As the Serb is not playing any tour-level matches right now, Alcaraz has considerable scope to reclaim the crown.

But the 20-year-old has decided to take a breath of fresh air in Shanghai, as his practice took a back seat. The Spanish Bull flaunted his $390 billion sponsor’s possession as he nailed a casual look.

The former World No.1 is trying to get past the semi-final curse from the last two tournaments. Alcaraz won his first two rounds at the Shanghai Masters without dropping a set. He is gearing himself up for the fourth round against the Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov. The Spaniard and the Bulgarian will play each other tomorrow.

Alcaraz utilized his short break to pose for one of his biggest sponsors, Louis Vuitton. The Spanish No.1 has shared a series of pictures on his Instagram account, in which he oozed pure class and sophistication. The 2-time Grand Slam champion captioned his post, “Day of rest in Shanghai! ? We’re ready for tomorrow’s match! ??@louisvuitton.”

The luxury French brand opted for an elegant heritage site for the shoot, as Shanghai is known for its rich culture. Alcaraz donned a classic combination of a white baggy tee and sky-blue colored straight-fit jeans. He paired his outfit with a minimal carbon-colored denim jacket with a white collar.

The Spaniard appeared stunning in this simple yet luxurious look, sporting the luxury brand’s jade-colored duffle bag and a rolling suitcase. Alcaraz made it to the list of elite consortiums in July during his Wimbledon Championships run. After he bagged his 2nd Grand Slam on grass, the Spaniard dazzled in his first Louis Vuitton campaign in August. He disclosed how the collaboration meant a lot to him as he drew a childhood reference.
