Carlos Alcaraz debuts new look in Shanghai amid breakup rumors

Carlos Alcaraz made his mark in Shanghai with a commanding Round of 64 win over Juan Manuel Cerundolo at the Rolex Shanghai Masters, extending his dominance on the ATP tour. The 23-year-old Spaniard’s victory was overshadowed by his bold new look—a striking mustache that quickly became the talk of the tennis world, sparking speculation about its significance.

Alcaraz shared his triumph on Instagram, where the photos of his fresh facial hair drew widespread attention from fans and fellow players, though one notable figure remained silent: Claudia Canals. The Spanish entrepreneur, previously linked to Alcaraz after being spotted together in Italy this summer, neither commented on his post nor engaged with it, signaling a clear end to their reported connection.

The unfollowing of each other on social media further confirmed the split, leaving Alcaraz to embrace a new chapter both on and off the court with his distinctive new style.
