We are witnessing the rise of a tennis legend

Most players don't have such a highlight reel after a whole career.

I've never seen drop shots like his. If it wasn't enough that he has the power to blow you off the court from the baseline, his hands and touch at the net are absolutely obscene

I love how Tsitsipas imitated Alcaraz grunt to piss him off in Barcelona and then got humiliated by a godlike dropshot

Happy 19th Bday to Carlitos Alcaraz! 🎉 Taking you through the best of his career so far...

He is by far the most impressive up and coming youngster since the big 3 emerged. He has it all, if he stays injury free and keeps working hard its hard to imagine him not achieving big thing in the future.

The tennis world has never seen a player this complete, especially at only 19 years of age. Alcaraz has all the shots in the game, and he can do them all not just well, but at top-notch level. What's more is he is still improving at a rapid rate with his consistency despite his style of play is usually error prone and can change a lot from day to day. With the big 3 close to retiring age, we might just see the most dominant tennis player ever and for decades to come. What a time to be a tennis fan.

Carlos is the New Era of Tennis 😍😍😍

One of the most talented players I've ever seen.

He can play perfect drop shots, he can slide from one end to the other, he can play massive forehand and backhand..in all, he is the complete package.

That point versus Nakashima literally had my jaw on the floor... this kid is special

the match against kemanovic was one the best 3 set matches I've ever seen in my life, and I've been following tennis since the mid 80's

The point at 6:20 is absolutely unbelievable ! Of course, with Alcaraz, anything is possible. He should be #1 by the end of the U.S. Open, if not before.

I feel bad for those top 20 players with high expectations and then they get schooled by an 18 yr old. Alcaraz is insanely good

this dude is insane

The feeling from Roger, the physis from Joker and the explosiv shots from Rafa.. and he is 19! Like a dream.. i would never habe thought that possible 🤩🥰

I love to watch this guy play.....he has such a good combination of skills; the hands, the speed, the endurance and he plays all out!! He's gonna be a big, big player!!

I love this kid. Such a joy to watch.

It shouldn't be allowed to be this good at 18/19 years old... Haven't been watching tennis for about 2 years now and just recently started again by watching the Madrid Masters. Watched his first game (forgot the opponent, sorry) and was absolutely blown away by him. As a Nadal fan, it hurt a little bit to see him go out but I was satisfied when Alcaraz beat Djokovic, too and finally won the tourney. Unbelievable stuff, let's hope we'll get to see him taking over the world for many more years!

The Phenom.... The Rise of the Legend.

His opponents are hitting winners, and then he turns around and hits a better winner back. I Iike that he's confident, but not at aII conceited. AIcarez seems very sweet. Boy is he talented!

I'm glad I have seen most if not all of these matches the first time around. Every match he plays is a highlight reel.

A star. When he manages to reduce a little bit his unforced errors, he will be nearly unbeatable

I have seen only three players do what this one kid does - Skill, Resilience, and Precision: Roger, Rafa, and Novak. He's got these all. I hope he becomes one of the greatest that the sport has ever seen.

I'm just trying to imagine this dude's workout regimen. Must be off the charts!

This kid is the real deal. Head and shoulders above anyone who has arrived since the 87 generation

He seems like a combination of big 3….Federer’ s touch and finesse , Djokovic’s speed and backhand and Nadal’s intensity ……His forehand to me is unique and a combo of Federer and Nadal……If his serve improves, which it will I mean there is no way why he can’t win multiple slams ….I also love the way he plays the game, he will always have the crowd behind him ….After Federer, I have found a player to watch and enjoy!

This year isn't halfway over and Carlos already produced awe-inspired career highlights that mere mortals cannot match. He can only get bigger, better, and stronger with experience. He is the one.

I was too young to witness the emergence of Federer, Nadal and Djokovic but I imagine the thoughts around Alcaraz are similar. When I watch him play I see the future of tennis, he has the early strike, outrageous power, soft touch and the bravery to play the big points on his own terms. He will eclipse all before him. The best athlete the game has seen to this point.

A star was born! Alcaraz is number one and the future GOAT. Watching him playing tennis is 🤯🤯. Hope the best for him and no injuries. After the Fednadnole era, it was unbelievable to find a new great champion in the young generation. But we got it. Awesome

Happy Birthday Carlitos! I may be a Sinner fan, but just like how I respect and adore Rafa (Fed fan) I heavily respect you too, good luck this year!

Thank you very much, Tennis TV, for this wonderful compilation of Carlito's finest hours (until today). It gave me goosebumps and brought me almost to tears. What a pleasure it is to see this young man from Murcia rise! Love & Respect👏👏👏👏

a career's worth of highlight shots already.. insane..

Carlitos is a genius in every way. Nobody plays and thinks like him, so it's just fascinating.

Those drop shots, bits from heaven!

power, technique, audacity! he could very well be regarded as one of the greatest in the coming years

Five months later Carlos already won his first Grand Slam in NY and has become nr. 1 of the World. Amazing how he can play that good being so young. A great heir to the King of Paris: His Majesty Rafael Nadal. Armada Power for some more years.

Please Alcaraz. Stay a great champion and a role model for all of us. Do NOT TATTOO yourself or go down terrible paths.

His drop shot is from another level. Happy birthday Carlos

Amazing completily!! He is great machine!! It is increable!!! He creates magic on the tennis !!

This kid is just phenomenal! He’s got some serious wheels. Not only he gets to impossible shots, but he makes winners out of those, placing the ball incredibly well, out of his opponent’s reach. Carlitos is an incredible player, athlete, the likes Tennis has never seen before. He is THE guy to watch. Ombilibobol! As Rafa would say.

Alcaraz, almost New No.1 in tennis world. It will be the natural change, as it was with Novak&Nadal&Federer when they were young!He is the strongest&the best from the younger generation!

Es increíble este chico hace emocionar al verlo jugar,es mí nuevo ídolo

He will finish #1 this year.

Happy birthday Carlitos! I’m so happy you came along. You brought a fresh and exciting brand of tennis the world has never seen since Rafa. But you have added a distinct flavour only you can produce. I wish you all the successes the tennis gods can provide. I’m going to enjoy watching you for a very long time! Vamos! 🎂 🥂 🥳

All of these shots are incredible! The lungbuster at 4:06 with Andy nearing doubling over! Whew! And he was ready to go right after! And the tweeners vs Stef! Always intense with those two! Happy Birthday Carlos! Enjoying the journey so far. 😀

It´s impossible not to root for him. I´m a Nadal fan, but yesterday I was happy to see Alcaraz take over in Madrid

This young man is phenomenal. There are no superlatives to express his talent.

HBD Charly, wonder kid👏🏼🔥🏆

Brilliant upload of the birth of the second Spanish God of tennis!❤️💛❤️

11:20 Carlitos, that lob was muy bonito lol

That 12:49 drop shot off of a high-top spin Tsitsipas attacking and penetrating forehand is obnoxious, plain wrong, abnormal, exceptional, indecent and pornographic. All in one. This kid is the incarnation of Federer and Rafa at their best - both in one. He is an attacking player with Federer's forehand variety (nobody since Peak Federer has displayed anything like this), and he outdoes Federer's disguise with the drops. Can his touch be as good as the Swiss Maestro's? I ain't never seen dropshots like this before. He moves, fights and defends like Rafa. And he seems to have Murray's backhand to top it all off... His one-handed backhand slices are also sublime. It is just absurd for someone to be this good at this age. If he can keep up his consistency, he will be a threat everywhere. Let's see how Nole responds given he is innoculated to Rafa and Fed. Maybe someone with their best skills can outlast him in slams.

Happy happy Birthday Idol You are the best. you will be the champion of Madrid Open 2022 and you will be Number one in theworld next year. Good luck and God Bless ❤️❤️❤️

This guy is something else!

At 4’10” Andy Murray’s reaction just about sums it up 🎾🍾❤️

Goodness me! This guy is phenomenal!

Happy Birthday Charlie Alcaraz

Absolute stunning!

Alcaraz - young gun ❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥

Kid is special…hope he continues on to be out e a Legend instead of just 1 slam wonder like so many others

FELICIDADES CARLITO!

Wow 19 años y con una gran carrera en el tenis. Bien hecho muchacho tienes excelente técnica y un buen físico. Te esperan grandes éxitos. Grande Carlos Alcaraz 🎾🎾🎾

Lui è semplicemente mostruoso .....un talento mai visto ....forza , classe ,eleganza ,potenza e grazia in ogni suo colpo. Per me è destinato a diventare il più forte tennista mai visto , se la condizione fisica gli regge.

It should be fun to follow his career !!

The way he's playing, no one, even Nadal or Djokovic, will be able to stop him, nowaday.

He’s a mix from Nadal speed and strength and Federer strategy and forehand . That’s the real next gen

He has about a 10 year window of opportunity to run and slide and exert energy at this level. I hope he makes the most of it and stays away from injury.

FELIZ CUMPLEAÑOS CARLITO!

definitely the fastest player i've ever seen.

Vamos Carlos!👍🇪🇦💪

Just hope and pray that he doesn’t inherit a lot of injuries along the way….he is just so entertaining and exciting for tennis. He brings fresh air to the world of tennis. Good luck Carlos on your beautiful young journey.

We are already awash with highlights and he’s only 19!

He has everything

Gracias Carlos por demostrar que el tenis español sigue siendo mejor 🇪🇦

41 winners on red clay in slower night conditions vs 17 UE against a Top 3 - 4 clay courter like Tsitsipas in Barcelona. Let that sink in for a moment. Now picture what he is capable of on faster surfaces. One word... frightening and remember, he has not reached his peak. I can't find the words to describe what his match stats could be at his peak. He will reach the top for one very important reason....from ATP tour article However, despite his success, the 2022 Tour-leading four-time titlist is still aiming for further improvement. “I think that I have to improve everything still. I have always said that you can improve everything. You never reach a limit,” Alcaraz said. “Look at Rafa, Djokovic, [Roger] Federer, all of them improve and they have things to improve. That's why they are so good, and that's why they are so much [of the] time up there, because they don't stop. They keep on working and improving. “That's what I want to do. I want to keep on progressing. I have really good shots. I don't say that I don't have them, but I know that I can improve them and they can be even better.”

The first one was amazing ,he was like a bullet!

Wondering how many GS can he win? We've got probably almost 2 more decades to witness it. He's special.

So incredible!!

Alcaraz...From which there is no escape.

Happy 19th Birthday Carlos🎂stay humble and grounded!..

FABULOSO CARLITOS🎉🎉🎉

Just imagine, we may be seeing a new "Big 3" without any other "Big x" around. He could clean house for a decade and reach/pass the current record of slams. If Djokovic is allowed in Australia, Djokovic/Alcaraz could be an incredible match, hopefully a final.

12:04 I could be wrong but it looks like the announcer says "can't miss" at the same time as the guy in the crowd

another GOAT incoming

Happy blessing 19th day Carlitos ... Hope you have the best career in tennis nowadays and in the future

Happy birthday kiddo

Very much reminds me of a young Djokovic, but with some extra abilities as well. Like sublime touch, creativity and a versatile forehand. If this guy develops a good serve he is going to win a bunch of slams.

Feliz cumpleanos Carlos 🌈

Incredible, Carlos.

Carlito on FIRE!!!! BEAST/GOD MODE

Damn that boy is good. He is just getting started too.

Gotta say, loving this camera angle. You can appreciate the speed and the movement so much better!

0:15 announcer: "how has he won that point?" john mcenroe: "he hits passing shots at a clay court specialist"

1 in 100 years

It comes alcaraz era

Alcaraz is the next great tennis champion. He can beat anyone right now. As long as he remains healthy, he will win many grand slam events. He has it all - speed, power, touch, smarts, endurance, desire, and great coaching. I hope he stays away from injury. Carlos, stay off of cement/hard courts as much as possible. They will wreck your feet and knees. I've seen that happen many times. I'm warning you. Stay off of cement courts!

This video was made two days too soon😂 Incredible wins since let’s hope he wins the final

He’s the new 1 of 3. No 2nd and 3rd goat in the making. Or maybe he’ll be just 1 of 1 🤷🏽‍♀️. Go Carlos!!!
