Rick Macci, former coach of the Williams sisters and one of the sport’s most influential coaches, renewed his conviction this week that Carlos Alcaraz is on a path toward historic territory. Speaking on social media, Macci highlighted Alcaraz’s body of work to date and predicted where his career could ultimately land, offering an unfiltered assessment of the 22-year-old’s potential. <\/p>
Macci captured his stance with a pointed declaration, “When you look what he has done so far the Spanish Magician is the best player by far at his age ever to hold a stick. But in life it is not how you start or where you start it is where you finish. Barring injury Carlos will be hanging out with the big three in numbers and maybe a guy from Italy.”<\/em><\/p>
