Carlos Alcaraz has a new streamlined look. Or, as Frances Tiafoe puts it: “aerodynamics.”
The Spaniard showed this at the Arthur Ashe night meeting on Monday, after he directly defeated Hirsute Reilly Opelka, he surveyed the crowd for comment.
Turns out, they liked it better than Tiafoe.
“It’s so scary. It’s so scary,” Frances Tiafoe told reporters in New York on Monday. “He’s my guy. It’s funny. I looked at him and I was like, I guess you’re aerodynamic.”
Tiafo said he spoke with Alkaraz’s coach, who joked that the new buzz made the fast Alkaraz faster.
“Juan Carlos “the mosquito” was laughing,” Tiafo said. “He was like, ‘Yes, he was faster than before.’ I was like, “Okay, that’s a problem. ””
Alcaraz explained that his new buzz came up by chance. He sometimes travels with a barber, but this week in New York, he only has his brother to hold the Clippers. It turns out that this is not a good idea.
“I felt like my hair was already very long, and before the game, I really wanted to get a haircut.” “Suddenly it was only my brother – he misunderstood the machine. He just cut it. Then, the only way to fix it is to scrape it off.”
Deep down, Tiafoe really likes haircuts, said Alcaraz.
“I watched the video. He showed up here and said that was horrible.” “I know he was lying. I know he likes hairstyles. He likes it. He told me.”
Finally, it’s not the hair that matters. This is a victory.
“Some people like it. Some people don’t like it,” he said. “I’m just laughing at people’s reactions to it. That’s it. So I can’t do anything else right now, so I’m just laughing at them talking about everything about my hairstyle.”
