Coaches are the reason a player manages to reach new heights and win titles. Carlos Alcaraz is no different, and like every other player, he managed to become a grand slam champion with the help of his coach, Juan Carlos Ferrero. While the Spanish coach accompanied him to every tournament, he was not in Melbourne to guide him through each round.
Alcaraz was eventually eliminated in the quarterfinal of the Australian Open but stuck around for the tournament. Now, he is back in his academy, reunited with his coach, and aiming to be the world’s number 1 once again.

One fan had serious advice for Ferrero and said that he should take Alcaraz’s phone away. They further said he needs to stop chasing Novak Djokovic and needs to tackle the titles of other players who have won multiple slams first.
Ferrero you have to take the kid's cell phone away.
He has to stop chasing Djokovic, the first record he must break is Wawrinka's Gram Slam and then Murray's.
He should stop being silly and be serious and obey.— Frod Rod (@yamir_shie) January 31, 2024
