Alcaraz Enters New Season Without Coach After Shock Split

As the new tennis season begins, Carlos Alcaraz faces a major change. The Spanish world No. 1 has split with his coach, Juan Carlos Ferrero, after seven years together. The break became public in a surprising way. In a recent social media post reviewing his year, Alcaraz shared many personal photos. None of them included Ferrero. The news has caused a strong reaction in Spain. Journalists gathered at Alcaraz's tennis club, but he did not comment. Ferrero has since given interviews explaining his side. Reports continue to discuss the reasons for the split. Some observers say Alcaraz made a mistake by ending the successful partnership. Others believe he is bravely taking control of his career. The split adds uncertainty as Alcaraz resumes his intense rivalry with Italy's Jannik Sinner. In women's tennis, Aryna Sabalenka and Iga Swiatek remain the top players.
