Okay, so, I’ve been digging into something kinda interesting lately, and I figured I’d share my little adventure with you all. It’s about Carlos Alcaraz’s coach and their salary. You know, Alcaraz, the tennis whiz kid? Yeah, that guy.
So, I started wondering, how much does a top-tier tennis coach like that even make? I mean, coaching a superstar like Alcaraz must come with a hefty paycheck, right?
First, I hit up the internet, just browsing around to see what I could find. There are so many sites, it’s really confusing. I found some bits and pieces about coaching salaries, not exact numbers. It seems like it is a mix of a fixed amount and a cut of the player’s prize money, like, somewhere between 7-10%. One source said a player, Daria Kasatkina, gives her coach 10% of her earnings. That’s generous, it sounds interesting!
Then I stumbled upon some info about Alcaraz’s earnings off the court. I read one article that he made around $32 million in endorsements and appearances. And get this – he apparently gets paid a ton just for showing up at events, that’s crazy! I can’t even imagine.
I also learned that Alcaraz’s main coach, Juan Carlos Ferrero, he’s a big deal. I dug up that he turned down coaching other top players to work with Alcaraz when he was just 16. And he even won the ATP Coach of the Year in 2022. Also, I read that Samuel Lopez will be on the coaching team for the 2025 season. So he will help Juan Carlos Ferrero.
- I found out that coaches usually get a percentage of the player’s winnings.
- Alcaraz makes a boatload of money off the court too.
- Ferrero is a highly respected coach in the tennis world.
- Samuel Lopez is going to help Ferrero for the new season.
But here’s the thing, I still couldn’t find an exact number for Ferrero’s salary. It’s like top-secret or something. I guess that’s how it goes with these high-profile sports deals. Maybe I can ask someone who works for the ATP. They might know something, but I doubt they would just give me that information.
Anyway, I thought it was a fun little research project. It really shows you how much money is involved in professional tennis, not just for the players but for the coaches too. It’s a whole different world out there!
I just wanted to share my findings with you guys. I hope it was mildly entertaining, haha. Maybe someone else out there has more info on this, I’d love to hear it if you do! Maybe one day I can even become a famous coach like Ferrero. That’s a dream!
I might keep looking, but I should probably get back to my day job. Talk to you all later!
