Carlos Alcaraz of El Palmar, Spain is one of tennis’s rising superstars. At the age of 18, what he has been able to accomplish to date has been mighty impressive.

On Sunday, Alcaraz won his third ATP event of 2022, and fourth of his career, after beating two-time United States Open semifinalist Pablo Carreno Busta of Spain 6-3, 6-2 in the final of the 2022 Barcelona Open. Alacaraz had previously won the 2021 Croatia Open, the 2022 Rio Open, and 2022 Miami Masters.

In the final, Alcaraz was able to win 88% of his first serve points and 82% of his second serve points. Alacraz also broke Carreno Busta four times, while Carreno Busta did not even have a single break point opportunity.
