Carlos Alcaraz He had a wonderful year in tennis with dreams come true and incredible achievements achieved. The athlete from Murcia finished 2024 as the third best tennis player in the world and Spanish fans are excited about a new representative of the country at the top, as Rafael Nadal was at some point. La Fiera said goodbye to tennis this year, but not before leaving an exciting message for Carlitos for his future.
Carlos Alcaraz He had the chance to play with one of his greatest idols and be part of a crucial moment in his career. Carlitos accompanied Rafael Nadal in his last match as a professional tennis player, both defending the colors of Spain in the Davis Cup. After his farewell, Rafa gave him one of the rackets he used in said match with a nice message. This piece was part of Alcaraz’s exhibition called ‘Los pies en la tierra’ in Murcia.
“For my friend Carlos Alcarazwith all my love. Best of luck in your career, which I am sure will be historic,” Rafael Nadal wrote the racket that he gave to the young tennis player from Murcia. This piece is one of the most sentimentally valuable in Carlitos’ exhibition about his career, which, although it is not as old as Rafa’s, is very intense and growing rapidly. The exhibition can be visited from December 14 to February 15 in the courtyard of the Old Prison.
The sensations of Carlos Alcaraz in the exhibition of his foundation
With the aim of making all citizens reflect, Alcaraz presented his exhibition “Los pies en la tierra” through his foundation. Designed for all ages, it is an interactive experience where you see the highlights of your career and your path to where you are today. It also shows how many children do not live the same reality with obstacles that slow down their development and harm their future.
“When I was little I had a dream, but you never think you will achieve it. You never imagine that you can play with your childhood idols. I wouldn’t believe everything I’m experiencing. It had no luxuries; My childhood was wonderful with the little things. Average family, we didn’t lack anything, but without great luxuries, and I was happy with what we had,” explained Carlitos at the presentation of his exhibition.
