Carlos Alcaraz doesn't need Rafael Nadal comparisons - Krajicek - video Dailymotion

Richard Krajicek thinks if Carlos Alcaraz tries to live up to Rafael Nadal then it could 'hinder his career'

00:00 I like everything about his game. I mean, he's physically good, he's fast, I love his

00:07 mentality on the court. Also, like Rafa, a very humble person. And he can do it all.

00:13 He can play certain volley, he plays from the base, he's got a big forehand, he's got

00:16 a very good touch on the drop shot, he can volley. Yeah, and he really loves the game.

00:22 If he starts to think about it or live up to it or try to beat it, then it will hinder

00:28 his career, I think, a little bit. But no, his name is Carlos Alcaraz, he said it himself.

00:33 And he's not a new Nadal. Nadal is a legend and he's going to do what he has to do. And

00:38 I think by winning two Grand Slams, being number one, I don't think he feels any pressure

00:42 or like, "I have to do this or this." He's proved already so much. I don't think he has

00:48 too much to prove and he's just playing for the love of the game. And he's going to win,

00:52 I think, many more Grand Slams and I'll be number one for many weeks also.
