Beyond the scores, the US Open 2025 saw Carlos Alcaraz make a significant style statement alongside his tennis prowess. Following his win against Reilly Opelka, the athlete’s new buzzcut quickly became the talk of the tournament. The Spanish player, celebrated for his signature black locks, emerged with a completely shaved head. Fans at Flushing Meadows responded with visible excitement, as Alcaraz inquired about their opinions during his post-match interview. Despite the positive reception from the crowd, Alcaraz’s friend, Frances Tiafoe, provided a contrasting viewpoint, humorously criticizing the haircut. Alcaraz later explained that the new style was the result of a haircut gone wrong. His brother was responsible for the mishap. Regardless of the drama, Alcaraz is focused on performing well and aiming for another championship. He is preparing for his next match against Mattia Bellucci.
