Alcaraz ‘awkwardly’ dances with Krejcikova at Wimbledon Champions’ Dinner

Carlos Alcaraz enjoyed a dream Sunday after winning Wimbledon with his native Spain beating England in the Euro 2024 final.

And the 21-year-old was all smiles as he danced with Ladies champion Barbora Krejcikova in the annual Wimbledon Champions’ Dinner.

Alcaraz has become the quickest man to win four Grand Slam titles after beating Novak Djokovic once again in the final at SW19.

His delight at a second Wimbledon crown soon turned into fright after being reminded he will have to take part in the traditional dance.

Former tennis star and BBC presenter Annabel Croft interviewed Alcaraz after his straight-sets victory, where she asked him about his dancing skills.

To which he squirmed by rubbing his face, before saying: “Let’s say, could be better I guess. Yeah, let’s see tonight, but I try to do my best.”

Footage has since gone viral of Alcaraz and Krejcikova on the dance floor, where they moved to Dua Lipa’s hit 2023 song ‘Dance the Night’.

At one point, Alcaraz – donning a stylish tuxedo – was seen giving the two-time Grand Slam champion a twirl towards the end of their routine.

Fans have been quick to comment on social media, where one X user said: “Most awkward dance ever.”

Another messaged: “I can’t look, it’s too uncomfortable! Got the moves? Maybe on the tennis court Carlos but not on the dance floor.”

A third quipped: “He definitely has more rhythm on the tennis court!”

This fan then posted: “This is simultaneously so awkward and so cute.”

Meanwhile another simply stated: “That young man needs dancing lessons!”

Alcaraz’s dancing may leave little to be desired, but 2022 WImbledon finalist Nick Kyrgios believes he is the future of tennis.

Speaking on BBC commentary of his win over Djokovic, the Australian said: “I think this is the official changing of the guard.”
