Alcaraz reveals which of his brothers he would choose for a doubles match

Carlos Alcaraz has once again demonstrated that his physique and game are more than enough to defend his title at the US Open despite being away from the circuit for four and a half months due to a wrist injury. The Spanish tennis player comfortably defeated Yibing Wu to advance to the round of sixteen, and on the court, he surprisingly revealed which of his brothers he would prefer to play a doubles match with.

"They are all here, it's a lot of pressure. I would like to play doubles with Álvaro, but I'm going to say Jaime. He is doing very well and hopefully one day I can play doubles with him. I don't know where, but it could be fun. I will wait for that moment to come," he said while pointing to the bench where his brother was sitting, who, like the rest of his family, didn't want to miss Carlos' return to the courts in such an important tournament for him.

Jaime Alcaraz, a star in the making

Álvaro, Carlos' older brother, plays a very important role in the Spanish tennis player's team and they even hit together in training to be in good shape for matches. Jaime, on the other hand, is his younger brother and also plays in lower categories. In fact, there are great expectations for him to reach the professional circuit in the future. 

Carlos has already become a tennis legend at his young age, but if Jaime could also reach the top of the circuit and they played together in a doubles tournament, it would be a historic event for Spanish tennis. For now, we will have to wait a few years to see how he evolves, but the player from Murcia has already made it clear that it would make him very happy.
