The 20-year-old athlete is the second youngest to assume the role.
Carlos Alcaraz, Grand Slam Champion and the world’s youngest No. 1 tennis player, has added another impressive title to his belt, as the newest Louis Vuitton House Ambassador. Following a Nike sponsorship, as well as Rolex and Calvin Klein endorsements, the athlete’s latest foray into fashion will see him represent the luxury label in marketing campaigns and at events, through a “collaborative adventure.”
“It’s such a dream to me to be a part of the Louis Vuitton family,” states Alcaraz in a new video released by the fashion house on Instagram. In the visual, he reflects upon his lifelong connection to Louis Vuitton, having always viewed the brand as a pinnacle of “elegance” and something to strive towards. “I saw people with Louis Vuitton bags and I always wanted to get one of those.”
