Carlos Alcaraz French Open Odds: Teen Ahead of Nadal After Indian Wells Win

Following a staggering campaign at Indian Wells which culminated in a convincing victory over an in-form Daniil Medvedev, Carlos Alcaraz regained his world number one status as he turns his attention to the summer Grand Slams. In light of this latest triumph, we are taking a look at the latest Carlos Alcaraz French Open odds as we edge closer to May’s tournament.

Can Carlos Alcaraz Usher in a New Era at Roland Garros? 

At just 19-year-old, Carlos Alcaraz has the world at his feet after finishing with a flourish at Indian Wells to claim a maiden title without dropping a set – the first man to do so since Roger Federer six years ago.

In doing so, he stopped a rampant Medvedev in his tracks with the Russian 19-games unbeaten heading into the final, but he also stands on the verge of tennis history as the tour heads from the California desert to Miami.

Although he moved up to number one in the ATP rankings once more, the Spaniard will need to retain his Miami Open crown this week to stay ahead of Novak Djokovic, but should he be successful in his defence, he can become the first player since Roger Federer in 2017 to win both events of the ‘Sunshine Double.’

With the French Open first approaching at the end of May, the clay-court swing obviously favours 14-time winner Rafael Nadal, who never fails to bring his best form in spite of injuries and form in the lead-up.
