Madrid witnessed a truly special moment as tennis sensation Carlos Alcaraz stepped onto the fairways of the Club de Campo Villa de Madrid, not with a racquet this time, but with a golf club in hand. The world No. 2 tennis player, fresh off a demanding tennis season, surprised fans by attending Day 1 of the prestigious Open de España. Just a day earlier, Alcaraz had delighted both golf and tennis enthusiasts alike by taking part in the Pro-Am event, sharing laughter, skill, and camaraderie with some of Spain’s biggest sporting figures.
Joining Alcaraz at the event were two familiar names: Spanish tennis legend David Ferrer and professional footballer Sergio Reguilón. The trio, representing three of Spain’s most beloved sports, became the center of attention as they enjoyed the mild autumn weather and the vibrant atmosphere of one of Spain’s most iconic golf tournaments. Fans at the venue were thrilled to see the 22-year-old tennis star in such high spirits, relaxed and smiling, as he mingled with players and spectators alike.
Dressed in a casual yet sporty outfit, Alcaraz looked every bit the natural athlete, effortlessly blending into the golf setting. While his main profession lies on the tennis court, his competitive spirit and coordination were evident as he swung the club with surprising precision during the Pro-Am. “It’s a very different kind of pressure,” he joked during an interview. “In tennis, I know what I’m doing. In golf… not so much!” His humility and sense of humor charmed everyone, from fans to fellow athletes.
David Ferrer, now retired from professional tennis but still deeply connected to the sport as a coach and ambassador, shared a warm moment with his younger compatriot. The two spent much of the day chatting and laughing, a beautiful reminder of how the torch of Spanish tennis continues to be passed from one generation to the next. Ferrer later commented to local reporters, “It’s great to see Carlos here, enjoying himself. He’s carrying Spanish tennis to incredible heights, and seeing him take a break like this is wonderful. He deserves it.”
Meanwhile, Sergio Reguilón, known for his energetic personality both on and off the football pitch, added an extra spark to the group. The Real Madrid full-back seemed to enjoy the occasion just as much, often engaging fans and playfully teasing Alcaraz about his golf swing. “He’s better with a racquet than a club,” Reguilón joked.
The Open de España, one of Europe’s oldest and most prestigious golf tournaments, has long been a favorite among athletes from other disciplines who come to enjoy its relaxed yet elite environment. This year’s edition felt especially vibrant, with the presence of Alcaraz adding a youthful and dynamic energy to the event.
As the sun set over Madrid, Alcaraz took a few photos with fans, signed autographs, and shared a heartfelt message on social media: “Always great to be back home in Spain — and to try something new! Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome at the Open de España. Such an amazing day.”
His post quickly went viral, drawing praise from fans around the world who were thrilled to see the tennis prodigy take time to unwind while still representing Spain’s sports culture with pride. Whether holding a racquet or a golf club, Carlos Alcaraz continues to capture hearts — not just with his talent, but with his humility and love for the game, in all its forms.
