French Open 2023: Carlos Alcaraz 'a complete player' - John McEnroe says 'sky the limit' for star

Eurosport expert John McEnroe says Carlos Alcaraz can win «at least» 10 majors as he gave his assessment of «a complete player» watching the Spaniard perform at the 2023 French Open. Alcaraz, who was in action against Taro Daniel on Court Philippe-Chatrier on Wednesday afternoon, is the world No. 1 and the top seed at Roland-Garros as he seeks his second Grand Slam title and first on the famous red dirt in Paris.

Ad With defending champion Rafael Nadal having withdrawn from the event in advance due to his ongoing injury struggles, much of the attention is on Alcaraz to deliver for Spain and succeed the 'King of Clay' at the tournament he has made his own over the years. Roland-GarrosAlcaraz says he 'played a great level' despite the tricky windy conditions28 MINUTES AGO While Alcaraz is hardly flying under the radar — with the precocious Spaniard tipped for glory, along with fellow leading contender Novak Djokovic — McEnroe believes that «the sky seems to be the limit at this point» with the 20-year-old's game and general talent on the court. «You’re darn right [that Alcaraz could win more majors],» McEnroe told Eurosport commentator Chris Bradnam.

«You say 10 [Grand Slams] and that sounds absurd to the other guys who are at 20, 22. You then think that he should get at least that much. I always thought, ‘hey, I’ve got seven, that’s pretty good’, but now it’s like, ‘where did I go wrong?’ »The sky seems to be the limit at this point.

Expectations are so high; you want to temper them and put more pressure on him, but he seems to handle it unbelievably well. At some point, it’s going to hit him, and we just hope he will be ready for it then. Djokovic: 'As Kobe used to say, nobody hates good ones, they hate great ones'
