The new tennis superstar, Carlos Alcaraz, just 20 years old, has been playing and winning with BABOLAT in hand since he was 10 years old and will continue to do so until at least 2030. The seven-year extension of his contract with Babolat, the specialized company in tennis born in France in 1875, was announced in New York.

The newly crowned Wimbledon champion, who has played with his BABOLAT Pure Aero 98 (and BABOLAT RPM Blast strings) since embarking on his successful US Open campaign in 2022, signed the latest extension to his contract alongside Eric BABOLAT, Managing Director from BABOLAT. Babolat has been equipping tennis lovers around the world for almost 150 years, from club players to the greatest champions of all time: René Lacoste, Arthur Ashe, Björn Borg, Pete Sampras, Andy Roddick, Li Na, Kim Clijsters, Caroline Wozniacki or Rafa Nadal, among others.
«For more than 10 years now, Babolat experts have been constantly working closely with me, providing me with the best tennis equipment for my performance. Playing with my Pure Aero 98, strung with RPM Blast, is much more than having a tennis racket,” said Alcaraz. “It means that I am a member of the BABOLAT family, and that there are people at BABOLAT that I consider part of my team. They listen carefully to my needs and comments in a constructive and constant two-way relationship. As a result, I’ve always been happy with the performance and feel of the frames and strings, and expanding this collaboration into the long term makes perfect sense.”
Carlos Alcaraz signed his first contract with BABOLAT in Spain at the age of 10. At 13 he joined the international BABOLAT team, and at only 20 years old he is the youngest world number 1 in tennis history and already has two Grand Slam titles to his credit (US Open 2022 and Wimbledon 2023).
Alcaraz, who started playing tennis at the age of 4, has always played with BABOLAT rackets and strings. Since the start of the 2022 US Open, Carlos has played the Pure Aero 98 racket, an updated version of the Pure Aero VS, using BABOLAT’s RPM Blast strings (130/16 gauge).
