Following a haircut mishap, Carlos quickly shaved his head to fix the uneven trim, with his friend and fellow player Frances Tiafoe humorously calling it “terrible” but “aerodynamic.”
During his post-match press conference at the US Open, Carlos explained that his brother Alvaro, had mistakenly shaved too much while trying to give him a trim.
“I felt like my hair was really long already, and before the tournament, I said that I really wanted to get a haircut. Suddenly, my brother just misunderstood the machine. He just cut it, and the only way to fix it is just to shave it off,” he said.
