Norrie won their last meeting on the clay of Rio de Janeiro two years ago, when Alcaraz was just a teenager. Now, this lad from Murcia in southeastern Spain is looking to add his name to the honours board at the All England Club for the third time, aged just 23. Only a fool would bet against him at this juncture.

Sunil Gavaskar, the legendary cricketer with a well-known passion for tennis, drew an engaging comparison between India’s flamboyant wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant and Spain’s tennis prodigy Carlos Alcaraz during his recent visit to Wimbledon.

He fought well but left stunned by the opponent's level. Clearly impressed, Cameron tipped the 22-year-old for continued Major success, highlighting his joy and ease on the court. The match offered further proof that Alcaraz remains a formidable favorite at Wimbledon and other Major events for the years to come.

The Spaniard dropped the first set against Andrey Rublev in the Round of 16, but he came back to win 6-7, 6-3, 6-4, 6-4, to advance to the quarterfinals. Alcaraz has won 18 matches on the spin at the All England Club.

Carlos Alcaraz is the youngest player to have won Grand Slams on all three surfaces and has been compared to the likes of Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal at the same age
