One of the great novelties that the preseason of Carlos Alcaraz has brought us is the new modification made to his serve. Showing an undeniable parallelism to the preparation movement of Novak Djokovic, the similarities have been highlighted more than ever in his first training sessions at Rod Laver Arena. With a much more curved right wrist and the edge of the racket pointing to the ground, in addition to a more closed racket face (although not as horizontal to the ground as the Serbian's), Carlos seeks more ease and power in his serve... and has learned from one of the best in the sport.
