John McEnroe says if Carlos Alcaraz is better than Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal were at the same age

Carlos Alcaraz is already a seven-time Grand Slam champion at 23.

The Spaniard has also held the world number-one spot for 66 weeks, although he now sits third in the rankings behind his two biggest rivals, Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev.

But how does he compare to some of the sport's greatest players at the same age? John McEnroe has now shared whether he believes Alcaraz is better than Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal were at his age.

Appearing as a guest on the ' Served with Andy Roddick ' podcast ahead of the 2026 Laver Cup, McEnroe delivered his verdict on Alcaraz.
