After winning Wimbledon to clinch his fourth Grand Slam title Carlos Alcaraz is hungry for more success.
The Spaniard battled through to the Wimbledon final and saved his best performance for last when he dispatched Novak Djokovic in straight sets to lift the title.
He became the youngest male player to win four majors ahead of Rafael Nadal who was 22 when he claimed his fourth Slam.
The 37-year-old went on to win 22 of tennis’ biggest titles, and Alcaraz is determined to reach double figures as he aims to carve out a legacy as an all-time great.
How many Grand Slams does Carlos Alcaraz think he can win?
Alcaraz has a burning desire to finish his career as one of the greatest tennis players of all time.
He is certainly on track to do just that with the number of Grand Slams he already has under his belt, but the Spaniard is only just getting started as he plans to claim more Grand Sam titles.
“I am just building my path. My journey and career. I consider champions to be the big guys who have 15, 14, 20 grand slams,” he told Tennis Channel.
“Those guys who are at the big table. I want to be there one day. Yeah, four grand slams and two Wimbledons.
“It’s a great achievement, I’m not going to lie, I have to realise the things I am doing. But I want to keep building a good journey and hopefully one day I can stay close to these champions.”

Alcaraz continued his recent success at Grand Slams by winning a second successive Wimbledon title.
He became just the ninth man in the open era to defend the title at the All-England Club after securing a convincing 6-2 6-2 7-6(4) win.
The Spaniard unleashed his full repertoire on Djokovic who had no answer for what was coming at him from the other side of the net.
The 21-year-old served impeccably well and stretched the court to great effect as he managed to keep second seed off balance.
He squandered a 40-0 lead while serving for the championship at 5-4, but went on to claim the final set tiebreak to seal a memorable win.
