Tennis star and Louis Vuitton ambassador Carlos Alcaraz not only completed his Career Grand Slam win at Sunday’s 2026 Australian Open. At 22 years and 272 days old, Alcaraz is the youngest man ever to achieve this feat, breaking a record held by Don Budge since 1938.
After winning the US Open in 2022, Alcarez became the youngest men’s player to hold the World No. 1 position in the ATP rankings at age 20; and he holds the spot today.
He is the ninth man to win the Career Grand Slam with these titles:
US Open: 2022. 2025
Wimbledon: 2023, 2024
French Open: 2024, 2025
Australian Open: 2026
As a House Ambassador for Louis Vuitton since June 2023, Alcaraz’s historic victory is closely tied to the prominant global luxury brand and its increasingly famous tag line: Victory Travels in Louis Vuitton.

Alcaraz was preparing for his successful 2023 Wimbledon win and unable to attend the now famous debut of Pharrell Williams on an exquisitely-beautiful Parisian night June 20, 2023. His official partnership with the Maison was announced eight days after the show.
Alcaraz was a fan of the House before the tragic death of LV Men’s Creative Director Virgil Abloh. With Virgil and Pharrell sharing not only a close friendship but the core values AOC calls New Humanism, Carlos is now inspired by these traditions and values as expressed by Pharrell.

In January 2024, Carlos joined a Louis Vuitton Malle Vestiaire collaboration, in which the House created a personalized trunk to hold a selection of his memorabilia and equipment.
