Carlos Alcaraz continues his preparation for the start of the season at the Ferrero Tennis Academy in Villena, where he has joined
Jannik Sinner in an intense training session. The young world number two is looking to arrive in top form for the upcoming Australian Open after missing the previous edition due to injury.
The atmosphere at the academy has been one of camaraderie and competitiveness as Alcaraz and Sinner, not only rivals on the court but also friends, have shared their preparation for the upcoming Grand Slam. The Spaniard expressed his appreciation to Sinner for joining this joint training session that promises to strengthen his skills ahead of the challenging start of the season.
"Thank you Jannik for coming to train at the Ferrero Tennis Academy. Great morning and great session. Warming up for 2024," Alcaraz shared on his social networks, reflecting his enthusiasm and commitment to his preparation for the upcoming tennis year. Sinner, for his part, was also satisfied with the training day, highlighting the quality and focus during the joint practice.
Alcaraz's absence from the previous edition of the Australian Open due to injury was a setback in his meteoric rise on the professional circuit. However, his determination to return to full fitness and technique is evident in these intense training sessions with Sinner, which bodes well for an exciting start to the season for both talented players.
The collaboration between these two young talents of world tennis not only strengthens their individual preparation, but also highlights the camaraderie and mutual respect in a sport that is often characterized by intense rivalries on the court. They were due to play an exhibition but this is now not the case as Alcaraz instead will just head to Riyadh to face Novak Djokovic on December 27.
