“It’s very necessary to perform well and come back to the court with charged batteries,” Alcaraz comments on his outings with friends to Ibiza.

Carlos Alcaraz recently shared insights into the importance of taking breaks and enjoying life off the court. The recent Wimbledon champion emphasised the necessity of downtime, explaining that it helps him recharge and return to the game with renewed energy.

Reflecting on his trip to Ibiza with friends to celebrate his French Open title—his third Grand Slam victory—Alcaraz underscored how crucial it is to step away from tennis occasionally. After his thrilling final victory over Alexander Zverev, where he came back from two sets down, Alcaraz was seen enjoying a well-deserved break in Ibiza, as documented on social media.

“People work to afford certain things and then enjoy them with their loved ones. I’m living a dream, playing and winning these tournaments is incredible, but I also want time for myself. I don’t want to be a slave to tennis and miss out on life.”

“These small trips to Ibiza, a few nights with friends, enjoying, having time to rest, and time for myself—I believe it’s fundamental and very necessary to perform well and come back to the court with charged batteries,” the four-time Grand Slam champion added.
