We all know the trend that Carlos Alcaraz follows after claiming a win at a major tournament. Yes! He gets a tiny little tattoo on his body as a memento. And as he rose victorious over Jannik Sinner for the 10th time in his career at the 2025 US Open, the world of tennis began to wonder about the tattoo that the Spaniard was planning to get this time. Well, prepare to be shocked, because this time, it’s a pretty special win.
Alcaraz revealed his inking plans during his conversation with ESPN’s Chris McKendry, Mary Joe Fernandez, and James Blake after the battle with Sinner. When McKendry asked him about it, Alcaraz said, “Well, I said it’s going to be the first one, the first major. But seeing that the first one, US Open, that I won in 2022, I tattoo just the date. I had to do something.” So, this time, he decided to get more than just one tattoo.
Alcaraz continued, “So, probably, I’m gonna do two things, because I had a bet at the beginning of the tournaments. The Brooklyn Bridge, and obviously the Liberty statue. I’m gonna do both. And the date. Because this one is special. I had to tattoo twice.” The Spaniard now has a pretty impressive collection of body ink. He has an Eiffel Tower for his 2024 French Open win, a strawberry for his Wimbledon win. He even expressed his desire to get a kangaroo for his Australian Open victory.
But where does he plan on putting the new NYC tattoos? Well, that’s a question that left Carlos Alcaraz confounded. He claimed, “I have the date here [points at left arm], so, I don’t know if it’s gonna be here, or in the… I don’t know how to think about it… New York is gonna get two.”
