17-years-old Carlos Alcaraz enjoyed a great 2020 season and managed to win the ATP Newcomer of the Year Award.
Alongside winning 2 ITF-level titles, Alcaraz managed to win also 3 Challenger titles and played his first ATP tournament in Rio de Janeiro where he lost to Federico Coria in the second round. The young Spaniard was now selected the ATP Newcomer of the Year and he said:
“I wanted to thank the ATP and everyone who voted for me in the Newcomer of the Year Award. I’m so happy,” Alcaraz said. “Honestly, this wouldn’t be possible without my team. We did some great work this year despite the difficulties. I want to also congratulate all of the other nominees for this award. They’ve had a great year too and played at a high level, and I wish them the best of luck in 2021.”
