Carlos Alcaraz spent a lot of time at the gym in his offseason. That’s the conclusion we can come to after seeing his toned arms. He is also wearing a sleeveless shirt in Australia showing off his muscles.

In many ways, Carlos Alcaraz Garfia reminds me of Rafael Nadal in his younger days. Before long, Alcaraz will be a grand slam contender and a major force on the ATP tour.

Alcaraz reached the 2021 US Open quarterfinal at age 18, becoming the youngest US Open quarterfinalist in the Open era. Along the way, he beat world number 3 Stefanos Tsitsipas.

Alcaraz has bee working with former French Open champion Juan Carlos Ferrero since 2019. A strong physique will set Alcaraz apart from his peers, just like it did for Nadal.

Vera Zvonareva was ranked world number 2 in 2010.  That year was a banner year for Zvonareva. She reached the singles finals at Wimbledon and the US Open.

Zvonareva’s mother, Natalia is an Olympic bronze medalist in field hockey. Her mom introduced her to tennis at the age of 6. Her interests outside the courts are volleyball, hockey, computers, reading, and listening to music.

In 2015, she took a break from tennis. She welcomed her daughter Evelina in 2016. She returned to the tour in 2017 and slowly built her rankings back up.

Despite her excellent singles record, she found better success at grand slams in doubles and mixed doubles. Zvonareva works with Rett Syndrome Foundation to raise awareness for nervous system disorder.

Her sponsors are Bidu Badu and Solinco. She has earned over $15 million in her career.
