He took advantage of the match winner’s traditional television camera signature to write: “Happy birthday dad.” And a heart sent to his father, Carlos Alcaraz, who saw it from the stands. It was he who built the foundation of his son as a tennis player as he himself was about to make a career in racket, to which he dedicated himself since his role as director of the school at Real Sociedad de Tenis de Murcia .
