Carlos Alcaraz Youngest Ever To Be Crowned Miami Open Champion

Carlos Alcaraz believes watching boyhood idol Rafael Nadal helped him become the the youngest ever Miami Open champion on Sunday. Alcaraz, who turns 19 next month, showed why many believe he is currently the hottest young prospect in men's tennis with a 7-5, 6-4 victory over Norway's world number eight Casper Ruud to land a first ATP Masters crown. Only two men have won titles at this level at a younger age — Michael Chang, who was 18 years and five months old when he won in Toronto in 1990, and Rafael Nadal, 18 years and 10 months when he was victorious in Monte Carlo in 2005.

Como campeona de Miami,, y encadenando los tres primeros Masters 1.000 (también Doha e Indian Wells) de la temporada, siendo la primera jugadora de la historia que lo logra. Juventud al poder. Gracias a su aportación, pero también a la de un Carlos Alcaraz que, ante sí, tiene la oportunidad de lograr su primer torneo de la mencionada categoría, después del ATP 500 cosechado en Río de Janeiro.
