Tennis fans miss Carlos Alcaraz. On Wednesday, we were treated to a video of him hitting forehands with that healing wrist. That got fans extremely excited for his expected return to the Cincinnati Open in a couple of weeks.
On Thursday, Alcaraz debuted a new hairstyle. This is a big departure from his previous noteworthy ones including the buzz cut, and the platinum blonde dye job affectionately called “blondecaraz.” It also is a noticeable change from his recent fluffy long-locked look at the FIFA World Cup Final. The long hair was clearly part of a well orchestrated hair plan that now makes perfect sense.
