Rafa Nadal said Carlos Alcaraz's rise in tennis is good for the sport but people must stop comparing the two Spaniards and let his teenaged compatriot enjoy his career without the pressure of having to live up to their expectations.

"The only thing that we can do is enjoy the career of an amazing player like Carlos. Will be better, even if it's interesting, you stop comparing him to me," Nadal told reporters in Rome. "Don't put pressure, extra pressure, on him. Don't ask me every time... I am super happy to have an amazing player like him in our country."

"I enjoyed my personal career. I think I am super happy the way that I was able to manage my tennis career. It is his moment now to manage his personal career the way that he wants it," Nadal added.
