Following the end of the collaboration between Carlos Alcaraz and Juan Carlos Ferrero, an avalanche of reactions followed.
After the popular tennis player confirmed his split with Ferrero via social media, the public was shocked.
The Spanish tennis player excelled this season and had many positive results. However, he decided to take a different, slightly more bizarre step in his career, which sparked a lot of speculation that has been going on since the moment he confirmed his decision.
Famous tennis journalist Jon Wertheim saidthat he was surprised by Carlos Alcaraz's decision.
Wertheim speculates that, according to information he heard from various sources, there was a disagreement between Alcaraz and Ferrer regarding commercial opportunities, ie to what extent to accept them or not.

He believes that such disagreements were one of the reasons for the split.
The reasons for this decision
However, it is difficult to say with certainty how accurate this is and whether this is the only reason for such a decision. It is hard to remain fully informed about the dynamics of their relationship when we do not know what the relationship between the Spanish tennis player and the coach really was, but on the other hand, the results that Alcaraz achieved this season were the reason why no one expected this outcome.

Whoever takes on that coaching role is aware that he will have to put in a lot of effort, because coaching the best tennis player in the world carries enormous responsibility, but also pressure.
