He might’ve been the king of Paris in 2024, but Queen still holds the cards on this performance.
He sang a song in Ibiza!
Carlos Alcaraz has made a vacation in Ibiza something of a post-Roland Garros tradition in recent years,聽having first “turn\[ed\] off his mind” for a few days聽after losing to Novak Djokovic in a four-set semifinal at the clay-court Grand Slam in 2023, in which he was infamously overcome by full body cramps.
The more things change, the more they stay the same. Now the Roland Garros champion after a five-set comeback victory over Alexander Zverev in Sunday’s final, Alcaraz again made a beeline for Spain’s most famous party island as a part of his post-Parisian plans.
And party he did: Snaps of Alcaraz and friends having fun in Ibiza made the rounds on social media this week, and one fitting (if charmingly offkey) round of karaoke to Queen’s famous hit, “We Are the Champions,” in a nightclub quickly went viral.
While the 21-year-old is certainly used to courting a microphone in front of the world’s media, let’s just say he’s better at serving up aces than he is at crooning famous bangers.
See (or listen) for yourself.
