Carlos Alcaraz continues to add astonishing statistics of precocity and inscribing his name in golden letters in the history of tennis. A testament to this is that of the 11 players who have finished more than one year as ATP number 1 in the ranking of all time, the Spaniard is the second to achieve it on more than one occasion before turning 23. The other was Lleyton Hewitt, who did it in 2001 and 2002.
