The extenist Rafael Nadal said Wednesday that according to the titles achieved by Carlos Alcaraz with 22 years, with six ‘Grand Slams’ in his record, the world’s number one career “is aimed at being unique”, although he asked to be given time.
Nadal stressed that the domain that Alcaraz and Italian Janick Sinner are exercising has no comparison with the one he starred along with the Serbian Novak Djokovic and the Swiss Roger Federer.
“They are Sinner and Carlos and we were us, and that’s it. In the end, everyone has to live their history, each story is different and there is no reason to comparing all day (…) let’s enjoy that great rival Golf
In his opinion, the so -called ‘Big Three’ marked an era by changing “the numbers that had been made so far” in terms of triumphas in large tournaments, while Alcaraz and Sinner “have the advantage that they have marked numbers that serve as a finish line.”
To the question of whether Alcaraz could be the best in history, Nadal replied: “Obviously it can. The race seems to be aimed at being unique. I hope you can have a very long career, which is what you also need to reach what numbers and hopefully they respect the injuries and go everything great.”

Nadal says that Alcaraz’s career ‘is aimed at being unique’
“He has six (‘Grand Slams’). It is an incredible number at his age and hopefully he has everyone who can,” he added.
Nadal recommended the Murcian tennis player “enjoy the moment, which is brilliant, and continue working to meet objectives, improve, train every day with the illusion of being better in something.”
“Because even if you are the best in the world, there is always a margin of improvement in things and that is the daily motivation. Enjoy the day to day and then we will see how everything evolves. In life, the objectives are very important and you have to have them in the short, medium and long term,” he reflected.
He disagreed in part of the council given by Federer Alcaraz that he thinks of a five -year near future. “I don’t see it very short term five years. Five years are many and more in tennis, which at any time can change drastically,” he said.
For the winner of 14 titles in Roland Garros, Alcaraz is making “an impressive career and is a very special player.” “We knew it for years, but it is confirmed over time. It is improving in what is an impressive and very happy career for him,” he continued.
In the opinion of Mallorcan extenist, Alcaraz helps Spain remain “a country tenstically reference in the world” and give “continuity to an entire time of successes.”
