class=\"ciam-article-t365\"><!-- Article Start --><\/p>\n<p>Carlos Alcaraz\u2019s former coach Juan Carlos Ferrero suggested some parts of the media were \u2018not acceptable\u2019 after a quote concerning a $9m yacht was misconstrued.<\/p>\n<p>The Spaniard, who split with Alcaraz over the winter, gave an interview to Corriere Dello Sport in which a comment was put to him from coach Ricardo Piatti who suggested Alcaraz would never have made the expensive purchase under the tutelage of Ferrero.<\/p>\n<p>Ferrero reportedly responded: \u201cHe\u2019s right\u2026 Maybe I said no to him too many times, but Carlos [Alcaraz] was family to me, and that\u2019s how I raise my children.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, Ferrero has suggested his words were taken out of context and lacked the original sentiment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRegrettably, I find myself once again having to address misleading or false statements and reports,\u201d he said in a statement posted to his social media accounts. \u201cIn response to news stories with headlines such as \u2018Alcaraz wouldn\u2019t have bought a yacht with me; that\u2019s how I raise my children\u2019 and similar claims.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would like to reflect on the responsibility the media has when reporting the news. When a news story is published, especially if it affects a person\u2019s public image or even their personal relationships, it is essential to check and verify the information before publishing it.<\/p>\n<h2>More Tennis News<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/former-grand-slam-finalist-makes-intriguing-french-open-final-prediction\">Former Grand Slam finalist makes intriguing French Open final prediction<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/ex-world-no-1-loved-alexander-zverev-reaction-french-open-final\">Ex-world No 1 shares what he \u2018loved\u2019 about Alexander Zverev reaction ahead of French Open final<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cMisinformation or a lack of rigour is not acceptable. If an interview is quoted or statements are transcribed, the very least that can be expected is to ensure that they have been reproduced correctly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHonestly, I find it increasingly difficult to give interviews. I receive constant requests and always try to engage with the media respectfully and in good faith. That is why it is particularly frustrating when situations like this arise, where misquoted statements generate misleading headlines that then spread rapidly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt no point in the interview did I refer to my children\u2019s education, and furthermore, I believe that buying a yacht is neither good nor bad in itself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ferrero also posted the correct quotes from the interview, which was given in English and transcribed by the ATP, and he is quoted as saying: \u201cI will say that maybe I was the guy who said no to many things but as his family. I think also family try to make stay on the floor all the time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMaybe Piatti is right but at the end, the last word, who has the word is Carlos. I tried to advise him and make good tips but at the end, he has to really learn from that decision that he made, good ones and bad ones.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ NEXT: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/john-mcenroe-warning-alexandrer-zverev-french-open\">John McEnroe fires a big warning to Alexander Zverev as he targets Grand Slam glory<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End --><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Carlos Alcaraz ex-coach issues statement after \u2018not acceptable\u2019 media reporting Sam Cooper 07 Jun 2026 9:00 PM Juan Carlos Ferrero with inset of Carlos Alcaraz Carlos Alcaraz\u2019s former coach Juan Carlos Ferrero suggested some parts of the media were \u2018not acceptable\u2019 after a quote concerning a $9m yacht was misconstrued.
