Carlos Alcaraz, number one in the world and at least a semi-finalist in these ATP Finals 2025, gave an assessment of what the life of a professional tennis player is like: "It is much harder than people think," confessed the Spaniard in an interview with El País. "People don't see what goes on behind the cameras. The children or young people who have dreams, they don't see that, and with this, I don't mean to say it's good or bad, but once you get there, everything takes you by surprise: the invisible training, what needs to be done after the matches, the press, the pressure, the nerves... All that is there, but you don't feel it until you experience it. I would say this is much tougher than we think, but it also has that beautiful side.
You never get used to a place, and just when you start to, you have to leave. Being far away from family or friends is difficult, and obviously there is the monotony. All of that eventually turns into a wheel that can wear you out a lot."
