Carlos Alcaraz smiled like a child after receiving the Laureus Award that honors him as the best athlete of the 2025 season. Despite currently going through a delicate moment due to his injury, the Murcian was brilliant in his speech remembering his entire team and confessing what this award means in his career.
"Receiving this recognition from people who understand sports so deeply makes it even more significant. I also want to congratulate the nominees. It is a true honor to be nominated alongside athletes like you. What you have achieved is incredible. And sharing this moment with you makes this award even more special. This award recognizes my 2025 season, a season that was full of unforgettable moments for me. Winning two Grand Slams and finishing the year as number one is something I dreamed of since I was a little child. But when I look back, I not only think about the trophies and the results. I think about the journey, the work, the challenging moments, the people who were by my side, and everything I learned during the process. And, honestly, that's why this award is so exciting for me. It's a dream, a true dream. Something I never would have imagined when I was a kid who simply loved tennis and enjoyed every time I stepped on the court," he valued in a speech that you can listen to in its entirety below.
