In a new interview with L’Equipe, Alcaraz shared three Big 3 strengths he strives to achieve in his own game.

Alcaraz said he wants to have “the mentality of Rafa, the class that Federer has in his game and in his movements and practically all the shots of Djokovic, which are incredible.”

Twenty-three time Grand Slam champion Djokovic said Alcaraz already combines essential elements of the Big 3.

“I think people have been talking in the past 12 months or so about his game consisting of certain elements from Roger, Rafa, and myself,” Djokovic said at Wimbledon. “I would agree with that. I think he’s got basically best of all three worlds.”
