Alcaraz practises with 17-year-old junior No. 1

Carlos Alcaraz trained with junior World No. 1 Guto Miguel on Wednesday at the Nitto ATP Finals.

Alcaraz, Alexander Zverev and Ben Shelton were among those to practise inside Inalpi Arena, beginning their on-site preparation for the season finale.

Alcaraz, who is seeking his first crown at the year-end championships, practised with 17-year-old Brazilian Miguel, the winner of this year’s Roland Garros boys’ singles event.

The Spaniard arrived in Turin fresh off a title run at the Rolex Paris Masters, where he defeated Shelton in the final.

Two-time champion Zverev, the World No. 1 in the PIF ATP Rankings, practised with his hitting partner Matthias Bachinger and German Tim Puetz, who is competing in the doubles field alongside Kevin Krawietz.

Shelton is making his second consecutive appearance at the season-finale and will look to improve upon his 0-3 showing last year.
