It’s been two days since Carlos Alcaraz turned up at the US Open practice courts with a brand new buzzcut, but his hair is still the talk of the town at Flushing Meadows.
After winning her opening match, two-time former champion Naomi Osaka had her say on the Spaniard’s new look.
“I saw him with hair, and then suddenly yesterday I saw him practising without hair,” she said on Tuesday night.
“It’s cool that he just doesn’t care that much. I mean, I thought he was going for like a David Beckham moment.
“Will his life change if I like it or not? Do I like it? I mean, I like people that do different things. So I find everything kind of interesting if someone doesn’t do something expected.
“Yeah, I guess I like it. He’s switching it up. Maybe next time he should dye it platinum or something. I don’t know.”
