It appears Carlitos shares that feeling. After teaming up with our champ in doubles at the Paris Olympics, he had been looking forward to reuniting on the court with his fellow Spaniard this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt would have been super special to repeat here in Berlin,\u201d Carlos told\u00a0Marca. \u201cWhen they gave the team and I saw that Rafa was coming, I was really excited to share the locker room with him once again.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHere at the Laver Cup we are all much closer together and it would have been a unique experience. I am going to miss him and I hope he returns to the courts soon when he feels well. I hope we meet at some tournament soon.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The 21-year-old is hoping to see Rafa in Malaga for the World Cup of men\u2019s tennis.<\/p>\n<p>Alcaraz continued: \u201cI heard David Ferrer say that if Rafa was there, he would go all out with him. I hope I\u2019m also physically fit to be able to go to Malaga. It\u2019s something that I\u2019m particularly excited about and I hope Rafa is there too.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRafa is one of the greatest in the history of our sport. For me he is my idol, he is the one I watched the matches with when I was a child, I have tried to learn from him as much as I could during the time we were together. I will miss him in Berlin because it was a unique opportunity to continue learning from him. He has been a unique tennis player.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Photo by Julian Finney\/Getty Images for Laver Cup) Carlos Alcaraz is making his Laver Cup debut this week, but for many of Rafael Nadal\u2019s fans, the atmosphere&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2583,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2581","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tennis"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.4 -
