CARLOS ALCARAZ has unveiled a radical new look for the US Open – he has shaved off all his HAIR.

The Spaniard, 22, normally has thick, black hair and certainly did when he played in the Mixed Doubles Championship.

That was last Tuesday with Emma Raducanu on the Arthur Ashe Stadium.

Yet ahead of his first-round encounter with lanky American Reilly Opelka on Tuesday evening, he turned up with a fresh skinhead.

It was a surprising look that was captured by US Open cameras and footage was posted on their Instagram channel.

The former US Open champion wore a white Nike Total 90 Dri-FIT soccer jersey, which was a sleeveless top.

It is perhaps a wise choice given the heat and humidity of playing in the Big Apple at this time of the year.

Nonetheless, the decision to chop off his locks was a recent one.

That was given that a video was posted on Monday of him attending St Patrick’s cathedral off Fifth Avenue.

The world-renowned tennis player was given a blessing from a Catholic priest – and in the footage, he has a full head of hair.

Alcaraz is one of the biggest sportsmen on the planet and will be hoping for a deep run at the last Slam of the year.

In their last four tournaments together, Alcaraz and world No.1 Jannik Sinner have met in the final.

They battled it out in Rome, Paris, Wimbledon and Cincinnati.

Assuming he has not lost his magical powers like biblical hero Samson did following a hair cut, then there is a great chance Alcaraz and Sinner could meet again in the final on Sunday September 7.

Fans flocked to social media after his new look was revealed.

And they compared him to English soccer legend’s look back in the early 2000s.

“He looks like early 2000s David Beckham,” said one.

Another said: “Thats not him no way.”

A third added: “Who is this person?”

A fourth commented: “Jesus Christ, Carlos knows how to shock his fans on and off the court.”

And one said: “That’s not Carlos!”

“He’s my guy though. It’s funny. I looked at him and I was like: ‘I guess you’re aerodynamic.’

“Juan Carlos ‘Mosquito’ was laughing. He was like: ‘Yeah, he’s faster than he already was.’ I was like: ‘Well, that’s a problem.’

“I don’t know who told him that it’s good. I don’t know who told him to do that, but it’s terrible.

“From a guy who gets haircuts week-in, week-out, and prides myself on good haircuts, it’s horrendous.

“At the end of the day, it’s Carlos, and that’s my guy. But yeah, he needs to get with me. He needs to get with me for sure.”
