Carlos Alcaraz is not sure if he will play in the US Open and the French Open in 2023

‘More grand slams’: Carlos Alcaraz already has sights set on 2023 glory after US Open triumph

The 35-year old has won 32 Grand Slam titles, 16 of those with his native Spain

His achievements include a first Major at the US Open in 2006 and seven years on his record-breaking list of Grand Slams winners.

“I think it’s great for my career, to play three Grand Slams in three years.
