Carlos Alcaraz has confirmed that he has split with coach Juan Carlos Ferrero after six Grand Slam titles and seven years together.

Carlos Alcaraz shared that he has split from his longtime tennis coach, Juan Carlos Ferrerro, following more than seven years working together – see details.

Former Spanish tennis player Alex Corretja has labelled it a "sad for tennis" after Carlos Alcaraz announced his split from long-time coach Juan Carlos Ferrero just a month out from the Australian Open.

Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner turned 2025 into a gripping tug-of-war for tennis supremacy by carving up the Grand Slams for a second straight year, while the women's game showcased depth and drama with four different major champions.

Hall of Fame tennis journalist Steve Flink doesn't think that coach Juan Carlos Ferrero and the rest of Carlos Alcaraz's team are too happy with the world No. 1 signing up for offseason exhibitions, knowing that the 22-year-old has often struggled in the first month of the year.

In the meantime, Carlos' 2026 schedule is gradually being defined and he seems intent on making the same choices as this year. For the time being, his presence at the Rotterdam ATP 500 (where he lifted the trophy in 2025) and Barcelona ATP 500 (where he was defeated by Holger Rune in the final this year) has been announced.
