First Carlos Alcaraz showed off his skills on the tennis court and then he delighted the crowd at Arthur Ashe Stadium with his ability to belt out a tune.
The No. 1 ranked Alcaraz had just defeated Dominik Koepfer 6-2, 3-2 in his first-round U.S. Open match after Koepfer had to retire from the match because of an ankle injury.
Alcaraz was doing his post-match interview on the court when the interviewer brought up two-time Latin Grammy winner Sebastian Yatra, who was in the stands for the match. Alcaraz said that Yatrai’s hit “VAGABUNDO” was a song that he listened to a lot and that it was “great to have him supporting the tennis and supporting me as well.” The 20-year-old Spaniard, who beat Novak Djokovic this summer
, was slow at first to get into a rhythm but quickly found himself singing the lyrics in front of the massive crowd, which included Yatra. And guess what, Sebastian is in the crowd.
