“You have to enjoy these types of moments. After all the work and suffering to win these types of trophies, you have to combine it with enjoyment,” claimed the world No.2. “I’m learning; Even though I’m still 21-years-old, I’m getting to know myself: what I need and what I don’t need, how to do it or how not to do it.
“I realise that you have to combine working and suffering with that rest and that freedom; and do what you like, feel like you’re not a tennis player and be a normal kid. It helps you isolate yourself and clear your head to get back on track at your 100 percent.”
Since winning Roland Garros, it has been confirmed that Alcaraz will play at the Olympic Games in both singles and doubles with the aforementioned Nadal.
And despite Alcaraz being the defending Wimbledon champion, the three-time major winner has admitted that he would rather win the Olympic gold in Paris this year.“It is difficult to decide. But I would say the Games because they are every four years and you represent your country and all Spaniards,” revealed Alcaraz.
“When I come back here I’ll have flashbacks. It can be very nice, my first Games forty days after my first Roland Garros. I would choose an Olympic gold.”
