Carlos Alcaraz extends birthday wishes to coach Juan Carlos Ferrero on his 44th birthday, reminiscing about their emotional embrace after his victory in the final of the 2023 Wimbledon Championships.

Ferrero, a former World No. 1 and winner of the 2003 French Open, transitioned seamlessly into coaching after retiring from professional tennis. His guidance has helped Alcaraz emerge as a formidable force in men’s tennis, leading to two Grand Slam titles for the 20-year-old.
