When you win as much silverware as Carlos Alcaraz, you need a place to store it. The Spaniard already has 21 career titles, including five Grand Slam crowns.
He already has an Olympic silver medal in his collection, too. At just 22 years of age, few can predict just how much silverware he'll rack up by the time he hangs up his racket. However, he could soon have a problem after admitting one of his trophies needs a new home as it can't fit where he needs it to.
Alcaraz openly relishes returning home to Murcia, Spain, to spend time with friends and family. In an interview for Financial Times' HTSI Magazine, he revealed that his home also doubles as a storage depot.
"There are trophies in my room and in the living room," said the reigning French Open king. "We're looking for more spaces to put them."
The famously large men's Queen's Club trophy, which Alcaraz lifted this summer, is one memento that won't be based in Murcia, with Alcaraz humorously adding: "I'm not taking that one home."
It seems that his family's abode is not just filled with medals and trophies, though. Alcaraz also confessed that his love of trainers was proving very problematic.
"I'm a complete sneaker fanatic," he said. "I love them. And there isn't any space left at home. My mother tells me off because I come back from every tournament with more sneakers and she says 'No, don't bring more, there's nowhere to put them'."
The next opportunity for Alcaraz to add to his cabinet is due to come next week. After withdrawing from tournaments in Washington and Canada, he's scheduled to play the Cincinnati Open in Ohio, which will form part of his build-up to the US Openthat starts this month.
