To accomplish what Alcaraz has done in such a short period is an incredible feat. When we compare his records to those of the “Big Three,” it becomes even more remarkable.

Known for his grass court skills, Roger Federer took four years and 32 tournaments to win his first title on grass court. It took five years and 38 tournaments for Rafael Nadal, the undisputed king of clay, to lift his first title on grass. The current world No. 2 Novak Djokovic, just shy of No. 1 by a few points, struggled for six years and played 48 matches before claiming his first title on grass. Carlos Alcaraz did the same thing in just two years and 11 tournaments setting a record unlike the greats.
