THE "NETFLIX" WARNING: DID CARLOS ALCARAZ’S DOCUMENTARY PREDICT THE SPLIT WITH FERRERO MONTHS AGO
No more "Juanki." Carlos Alcaraz splits with long-time mentor Ferrero. Discover the reasons behind the biggest tennis story of 2025.
Okay, here's a rewritten version of the text, trying to make it sound more like a human wrote it:
The tennis world's buzzing about it: Carlos Alcaraz and Juan Carlos Ferrero are splitting up. A lot of people didn't see that coming.
The reaction to the world No. 1's announcement that he and Ferrero, his coach for seven years, were parting ways has been huge, making this one of the biggest tennis stories of the year.
Since Wednesday's announcement, everyone's been wondering what caused the split. The rumours are flying, and they probably won't stop anytime soon, since neither Alcaraz nor Ferrero has said anything beyond their initial statements.
But now, some people are looking back at Alcaraz's Netflix documentary, Carlos Alcaraz: My Way, saying it showed early signs of tension between the two.
So, let's look at what the documentary showed and how Alcaraz and Ferrero reacted back then.
What was in the documentary?
Carlos Alcaraz: My Way was basically a standard look at Alcaraz's life, from tennis whiz kid to one of the best players around.
Not much new stuff came out. Everyone already knew how close Alcaraz is to his family and how badly he wants to be one of the all-time greats—those were big themes in the documentary.
But one thing that did pop up, and surprised some people, was a conversation between Alcaraz and Ferrero about how much time Alcaraz spends away from the court.
The 22-year-old's vacations and trips to Ibiza have gotten a lot of attention. In the documentary, Ferrero and Alcaraz's agent, Albert Molina, seemed worried that too much time off could be a distraction.
There was also a direct conversation between Alcaraz and Ferrero, who used to be world No. 1 himself, about where Alcaraz’s career was going. It showed how hard it is for Alcaraz to balance the demands of being a top athlete with wanting to enjoy life as a young guy.
How did Alcaraz react?
The documentary got people talking mostly about Alcaraz's work-life balance, that conversation with Ferrero, and how much time players should take off to rest.
Alcaraz didn't say anything publicly about the reaction to the conversation between him and Ferrero for a few weeks. He had to pull out of the Madrid Open because of an injury.
But when he came back at the Italian Open two weeks later, he was quick to shut down any talk of tension between him and Ferrero.
I'm not going to say 'a fight,' but the conversation we have, coach and player, we all have, Alcaraz said, according to sources.
We all have those conversations about everything: the tournaments, the practices, and the things I want to do that maybe I shouldn't.
Anyone who says they don't have those conversations is lying. That's the good thing, having different feelings and different points of view. In the end, we're all on the same path. We're all together.
That's great too. That's what I saw in the documentary.
How did Ferrero react?
Ferrero did a lot of interviews while he was Alcaraz's coach, and he also talked about the documentary.
El Larguero asked the former French Open champ about the reaction to the documentary and how people felt about the discussions about Alcaraz's training.
According to Punto de Break, Ferrero was quick to defend Alcaraz, making it clear that he didn't have big problems with Alcaraz's commitment.
He said, Now everyone's talking about it. Once the documentary came out, we knew there would be negative comments, especially if he lost. If he had lost in Paris, people would have said he should have gone to Ibiza.
Even though the documentary talks about his way, Carlos' way is really about training. We don't train a ton. I'd rather have two hours of really good practice than four hours with a bad attitude.
I used to train a lot more, but the demands of the tour mean we have to focus on quality and making training count. Whenever we've asked Carlos to work, he's done it.
IMMEDIATE: SHOCKING DETAILS BEHIND CARLOS ALCARAZ-FERRERO SPLIT; WILL HE JOIN RIVAL JANNIK SINNER
World No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz has shocked tennis by splitting with Juan Carlos Ferrero. Learn the real reason behind the breakup.
Tennis fans were shocked when Carlos Alcaraz and his long-time coach, Juan Carlos Ferrero, split. Ferrero has now said whether they've talked since.
Even though Alcaraz is only 22, his time with Ferrero is one of tennis' best. The 2003 French Open champ started coaching Alcaraz, who was a young, promising player in 2019.
With Ferrero's help, Alcaraz became a superstar and one of the most exciting players to watch. He's won six Grand Slams and finished 2025 as the world's top player, ahead of Jannik Sinner.
The only major title they didn't win together was the Australian Open. Even though it's still a few weeks away, people recently saw Alcaraz's outfit for the 2026 tournament in Melbourne. It's bright and colourful.
Alcaraz had a great 2025, winning two more Grand Slams, so the split was even more surprising. It sounds like disagreements between Ferrero and others close to Alcaraz caused the change.
In an interview, Ferrero answered a question everyone's been asking: Have he and Alcaraz been in touch since they stopped working together?
We haven't talked yet because he needs to relax so he can train. Once things calm down, we'll talk, and everything will be fine.
Ferrero's nice words about Alcaraz suggest they'll talk again. He thinks they can still be friends after all they've achieved.
I've learned a lot from Carlos. He's a kid with amazing charisma. He's always loyal and honest, tells the truth, and works really hard. I'm happy because once things settle, I'm sure we'll keep talking, remembering all the things we did together, and stay friends.
It must be tough for Ferrero not to be coaching Alcaraz after working so hard to make him one of the best. Taking some time before talking to the 22-year-old might also be good for him.
Juan Carlos Ferrero was also asked about coaching Jannik Sinner after splitting from Carlos Alcaraz.
Since 2024, one of Ferrero's main jobs has been helping Alcaraz figure out how to beat Jannik Sinner. Together, they've won every men's singles Grand Slam in the last two seasons.
Now that Ferrero isn't Alcaraz's coach, he was asked if he'd consider joining Sinner's team, which would be a huge change in tennis.
Ferrero didn't say no. Instead, he said he needed time to get used to not coaching Alcaraz. Sinner is still coached by Simone Vagnozzi and Darren Cahill, after Cahill changed his mind about retiring at the end of 2025.
NIKE OR UNIQLO? THE TRUTH BEHIND EMMA RADUCANU’S 2026 SPONSORSHIP SWITCH REVEALED NOW
Emma Raducanu arrives for the 2026 United Cup in Nike gear, silencing Uniqlo rumours. Get the latest on her fitness and schedule.
The tennis world's been buzzing about Emma Raducanu possibly leaving Nike for another brand before the 2026 season.
Word was she was getting ready to sign a big deal with Uniqlo, following in the footsteps of Roger Federer.
If she had dropped Nike, it would have been a shock. They picked her up right before she won the US Open in 2021 and became a global star overnight.
Even though she hasn't won a tournament since that US Open win four years ago, she's still popular, has tons of followers on social media, and everyone's still talking about her.
So, a switch to Uniqlo wouldn't have been totally out of left field. Since her mom is Chinese, the Japanese company might see her as having value for their brand.
But, when she showed up in Perth for the United Cup, she was still rocking Nike gear.
She could still switch to Uniqlo for 2026 since her Nike deal probably lasts until the end of the year. But for now, it looks like she's sticking with her current brand.
Her arrival in Australia also shut down rumors that a foot problem might keep her from starting the season.
She recently told the media she's feeling good about the upcoming season.
I feel solid with where I am at on and off the court. “I’m in a good spot,” Raducanu said.
I'm feeling like I am building back in the gym, to start with.
“I also feel pretty chill about next year, which is sweet. And I’m just proud of the season that I put in this year and the progress I have made.
Next year, I want to play less than I did this year. But I think also just putting fitness into my warm-ups, so it’s not necessarily just my fitness sessions that are separate.
So much has helped, and I think the biggest thing is little and often; just try and add in as much as you can for your overall health.
I think I’ve found peace with myself, and I’m happier with how I’m doing tennis and the team and the environment I have.
That’s the most important thing because it takes so much work to get where we need to be. And just enjoying each day and being healthy is awesome.
Raducanu is about to play her first event representing Great Britain in the United Cup, but Jack Draper won't be joining her since he's still dealing with an arm injury.
