World No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz recently drew attention from renowned American rapper and songwriter Travis Scott. Alcaraz, who is currently making the most of the offseason, was spotted at his hometown club Real Murcia’s Copa del Rey clash against Real Betis, and his brief on-field moment with the referee caught Scott’s eye and prompted an online reaction.

Alcaraz’s consistency has continued to captivate fans worldwide, and his 2025 season was a clear reflection of that dominance. The World No. 1 finished the year with a remarkable 71-9 win-loss record, capturing eight titles, including Masters 1000 triumphs in Monte Carlo, Rome, and Cincinnati, alongside Grand Slam victories at the French Open and the US Open.
He later carried that momentum into the United States, featuring in exhibition events, most notably the Miami Invitational at loanDepot Park. Here, the Spaniard faced João Fonseca in their first-ever meeting. With those commitments wrapped up, Alcaraz returned home to Spain, where he spent time unwinding, including watching his hometown club Murcia in action.
A few days ago, Alcaraz attended Real Murcia’s Copa del Rey clash against Real Betis, where he was given the honor of ceremonially opening the match in front of a roaring crowd. He was later spotted interacting with the referee, and one image of the two looking in the same direction caught the attention of Travis Scott, who reposted it on his Instagram story with the caption “Twin.”
Alcaraz’s loyalty to his hometown club is well known, and he was recently spotted attending the Primera Federación (Spanish third division) clash between Real Murcia CF and Sabadell.

While the intent behind Scott’s message remained unclear, it was notable that Alcaraz was wearing a black sweater featuring the word “Flight,” a piece from Scott’s collaboration with apparel giant Nike. The Houston-born rapper has been collaborating with Nike since 2017, when he first put his own spin on one of the brand’s most iconic sneaker silhouettes.
Meanwhile, Alcaraz has been backed by the American apparel giant since 2019, when he moved on from Lotto, a switch that coincided with his meteoric rise to World No. 1 and multiple Grand Slam triumphs. In mid-2024, the Spaniard strengthened that by signing a multi-year Nike deal reportedly worth $15–20 million per year, which also featured a personal signature logo, putting him alongside tennis legends like 20-time Major champion Roger Federer and 22-time Major champion Rafael Nadal.
