During the awards ceremony after his extraordinary victory at Wimbledon, the 20-year-old Spanish world number one Carlos Alcaraz wore a yellow gold Rolex Daytona with an Oysterflex bracelet.A luxurious and expensive detail: Carlitos is an ambassador brand with Rolex, with which it has entered into a sponsorship partnership.The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Meteorite 116518LN in 18k yellow gold is a version features a black ceramic bezel and a gray meteorite dial with black chronograph sub-dials, fitted with oysterflex bracelet.
Introduced in 2021, the new Meteorite Daytona is already out of production in all its configurations.Also during the awards ceremony, Novak Djokovic wore a green ceramic Hublot Big Bang Integrated Chronograph. We would like to recall Roger Federer, who with 8 titles remains the tennis player to have won the most in London, attended the Royal Box with his wife Mirka and the Princess of Wales Kate Middleton at the matches of ELena Rybakina and Andy Murray, wearing a Rolex Sky-Dweller.
Carlos Alcaraz: “I’m a different tennis player from Roland Garros”
A few days after his Wimbledon triumph, Carlos Alcaraz continues to be paid homage in the various Spanish media for his feat against Novak Djokovic, defeated in the final on London grass after a tough 5-set fight.The tennis player from Murcia went back to explaining how this victory for him does not represent a change of era in tennis: “It’s a little more special to have won in London than last year’s US Open for everything that means beating a legend like Nole in the final.It’s crazy that he has never played against someone like me, they seem like big words to me.
Hearing it from someone like Novak makes me much more motivated to keep improving. The truth is that I didn’t expect to win Wimbledon being so young, I’m very proud of the progress I’ve made in the last month.”The current number one in the world knows he must never stop: “The Big Three have stood out for having adapted their style of play over time.
My mentality is that I will never be at 100% of my potential, because every day there will be new opportunities to improve things and be a more complete tennis player.I’d like to play doubles with Nadal at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
I’m not afraid of anything or anyone, I know I’m a guy who can continue to make history and beat anyone.I can’t wait to compete at the US Open, I know I will be one of the favourites. Since Roland Garros I am a different player.
I learned a lot from what happened and it allowed me to approach the Wimbledon final in a totally different way.”
