Carlos Alcaraz has revealed a fresh appearance with a bold hair color transformation following his recent victory at the US Open in New York, reclaiming the top spot in the rankings. The Spanish tennis player, who secured his second Grand Slam title of the year and sixth overall by defeating Jannik Sinner in four sets at Flushing Meadows, sported a buzzcut during his time in America.
Upon returning to his hometown of Murcia in Spain, Alcaraz decided on a new look, opting for platinum bleached hair, courtesy of his longtime barber Victor. The 22-year-old had teased a potential hair change when questioned about his celebration plans, hinting at a surprise in store.
During the US Open, Alcaraz’s haircut became a focal point of discussion, with the player revealing that his brother had attempted to rectify a mishap with the clippers that resulted in an unplanned shave. Despite the hair incident, Alcaraz’s performance on the court remained unaffected as he dominated the tournament, only dropping a set in the final match against Novak Djokovic before securing the title by defeating Sinner.
Reflecting on his success at the US Open, Alcaraz expressed satisfaction with his performance, highlighting his high level of focus and strong gameplay throughout the tournament. The victory marked his second triumph in New York and added to his achievements in 2022, solidifying his position alongside Sinner as they have collectively won the last eight Grand Slam titles, with each player claiming four victories.
In a light-hearted remark, Alcaraz acknowledged his frequent encounters with Sinner on the court, humorously mentioning that they seem to face each other more often than he does with his own family. The tennis world celebrates these remarkable players as they prepare for future competitions between Europe and the USA in New York.
