Wimbledon Sends Seven-Word Message on Carlos Alcaraz’s Hobby

Originally posted on Athlon Sports | By David Derwin | Last updated Jul 8, 2025 3:12 PM ET

Carlos Alcaraz is seeking his third Wimbledon title as he advances from the quarter finals after defeating Great Britain's Cameron Norrie in straight sets. The 22 year-old Spaniard has been lighting up the crowd with his powerful and creative shotmaking as he enters the semifinals at Wimbledon for the third year in a row.

Of course it can't be all tennis, all the time, and when not on the courts, Alcaraz has a favorite hobby to keep his mind and body away from the pressures of tennis.

During his Wimbledon 2025 third round post-match interview, Alcaraz was asked about his off-court passion and said, "I just love playing golf on my days off." The number two seed recently played a couple of rounds with two-time Wimbledon winner, Andy Murray.

Just days after that interview, Alcaraz is wasting no time setting up his next round and may have just found his next playing partner, none other than English actor, Tom Holland.

In a video posted on Wimbledon's X account, Holland, 29, best known for his role as Spider-Man, approaches the number two seed Alcaraz on the court at Wimbledon and the two hit it off, not about tennis, but about golf.

"Carlos Alcaraz is after some more golf..." the post reads.

In their brief exchange, Holland introduces himself to Alcaraz who says, "I saw you play golf as well," before complementing the English actor's good golf swing. Holland then suggests that he and Alcaraz go play golf sometime, and Alcaraz quickly agrees.

Holland, like Alcaraz, is an avid golfer and played in the 2024 BMW PGA Championship Pro-Am event alongside English professional golfer and seven-time DP World Tour winner, Tommy Fleetwood. He was also spotted warming up at the driving range last year where he met Rory McIlroy and English cricketer, Ben Stokes.

Alcaraz will face 25 year-old American, Taylor Fritz, in the Wimbledon semi-finals on Friday, July 11th, 2025.
